Last week the Yankees had one of the most impressive comebacks this franchise has seen; they were down nine runs in the second inning and ended winning 14-13 thanks to a two run homer from Jorge Posada, Jeter Also contributed to the victory.
Jeter went 4-for-5 with a homer, four RBI and three runs. He also threw out a runner at the plate and stole third base.
“To be honest, I always thought we had a chance,” Jeter said. “You try to get one back at a time. You can’t get them all at once, and that’s what we did.”
The Yankees overcame a nine-run deficit for the fourth time in their storied history. The last time was a 12-11 win in 10 innings against the rival Red Sox on June 26, 1987. Boston’s starting pitcher in that one was Roger Clemens.
It was a positive win for the Yankees that needed to keep the winning record, since they are in one of the toughest divisions in the league. They cant allow important victories to slip away mostly against teams not as good as this one, in this division every victory is very important.
