BRONX, N.Y. — Luis Sojo was nearing the end of his career with the New York Yankees in 2001. He would collect a mere 13 hits in 39 contests that season but on this date, he came through with a big one.
During a seesaw affair against the Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium, in which Mariano Rivera surrendered a game-tying two-run tater to Manny Ramirez in the ninth inning, Sojo came through in the clutch.
During the home half, Sojo directed a Rod Beck fastball toward the right-field line for a 7-6 winner.
