The Yankees and Rays were tied in the 11th when Clint Frazier stepped up and ended it with a walk-off homer into the front row in left field. Rays pitcher Kitchen left one over the plate, and Frazier jumped all over it. He had passed on the first pitch, regretted it, then crushed the next one. His legendary bat speed showed on the replay, with the ball getting deep before he exploded through the zone.
Before that, Brett Gardner grounded out but moved Gary Sánchez to third, which became a key moment. Sánchez, known for his “double water bottle” celebration routine, ended up scoring the winning run. The big question was how he’d pull off the celebration if he’s the one who scored. He sprinted off, somehow got his hands on two bottles again, and rejoined the celebration without missing a beat. He even dropped one mid-run but scooped it up quick to stay in character.
The dugout scene got loud fast. Glaber asked for a helmet toss, and Frazier obliged, flipping it right into Aaron Judge’s massive hand. Judge also managed to palm Frazier’s head during the dogpile, which added to the chaos. But the camera kept going back to Sánchez, who fully committed to the two-bottle role, juggling and securing both even in the middle of the walk-off mayhem.
