Fisk tags out two yankees at home on the same play

On August 2, 1985 — Ozzie Guillen scores from second base on an infield hit in the 11th to give the White Sox a 6 – 5 victory over the Yankees. Luis Salazar’s slow roller down the first base line is fielded by pitcher Rich Bordi, and with no play at first, Guillen keeps running.

In the 7th inning With the score knotted at 3-3 at Yankee Stadium, White Sox backstop Carlton Fisk tags two New York runners out at home plate during the same play. The unusual 8-6-2-2 double play results when the baserunners on first and second base attempt to score on Rickey Henderson’s 400-foot double in the gap, but when outfielder Luis Salazar makes a perfect throw to shortstop Ozzie Guillen, who in turn throws a strike to the plate, the Chicago catcher tags out Bobby Meacham, and then spins around to tag out a sliding Larry Berra.
