The New York Yankees appeared to be on the verge of completing a sweep of the Baltimore Orioles, needing just one out to close the door on their division rivals on Sunday afternoon.
The ninth inning didn't go smoothly, however, as the O's were able to load the bases against pitcher Clay Holmes. With two outs in the inning, Holmes induced a fly ball to left field from center fielder Cedric Mullins—one which seemed destined to be a routine out for left fielder Alex Verdugo.
