The New York Yankees went back-to-back. The Cleveland Guardians punched back, then delivered the knockout blow.
One out away from going down 3–0 to the New York Yankees, Guardians outfielder Jhonkensy Noel clobbered a game-tying two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to send the game into extra innings. That set the stage for second-year outfielder David Fry, who smacked a walk-off two-run homer off Clay Holmes in the 10th inning to secure the Guardians' 7–5 win over New York at Progressive Field in one of the most entertaining playoff baseball games in recent memory.
