Yankees: 7 clutch playoff moments that deserve more praise

Cecil Fielder of the New York Yankees and teammate Paul O'Neill #21 celebrate after Fielder's three-run homerun during the third inning of game 5 of the American League Championship Series at Orioles Park, Camden Yards in Baltimore, Marylan

The Yankees have, time and again, had super clutch players step up in October. Remember these moments?

The New York Yankees are known for their October glory, something their fans will never stop reminding you, and something their haters have to grit their teeth and try not to respect daily.
