Yankees History: The best “counterpunch” wins

The Field of Dreams Game last week was about the perfect example of the Yankees getting counterpunched. After going into the ninth inning trailing by three runs and down to their last couple outs, they came all the way back, took the lead, and were then on the verge of a win.

Alas, Zack Britton couldn’t hold the lead and allowed a walk-off home run to Tim Anderson, as the White Sox won 8-7. After landing a possible final blow, the other team got off the canvas and themselves landed a knockout punch. It was not fun.
