2013 – The Red Sox win a wild 9 – 8 game over the Yankees. Trailing 7 – 2 in the 7th, the Yankees take the lead with a six-run inning, but Boston ties the game in the top of the 9th when Mike Napoli starts a rally with two out and nobody on against Mariano Rivera. Quintin Berry is inserted as a pinch-runner and promptly steals second and moves to third on C Austin Romine’s wild throw, before Stephen Drew’s single drives him in to tie the game. In the bottom of the 9th, Alfonso Soriano is thrown out in an ill-fated steal attempt. Jacoby Ellsbury singles and steals second in the 10th before Shane Victorino drives him in for the deciding run. Craig Breslow is the winner over Joba Chamberlain.
