With the Yankees only needing to win one game to make the playoffs, the Yankees were finally able to take one from the Red Sox. Behind the resurgence of CC Sabathia who was able to keep the Yankees in the game and get the big W. It was also the Yankees’ 10,000th win, but hey, who is counting, what matters most is that the Yankees will be heading to the playoffs for the first time in three years!
The Yankees were able to start the game off right. Who else but Carlos Beltran would get the Yankees started with a solo home run in the second inning to make the score 1-0.
