Nelson Cruz just Aaron Boone'd.

Damn he absolutely crushed that ball. Nothin like a no doubter to end the game.

In other news, the Yankees look good against the lowly Royals.

There will never EVER be another shot like Aaron Boone. No one Boone'd anyone.

i see what youre saying in terms of one swing changing an entire playoff series in its final game but there have been and will continue to be bigger plays. the yankees losing the following series takes away from this play. Bobby Thompson, now THAT was a play. Luis Gonzalez... THAT was a play. You could even argue Dave Roberts or Bucky Dent were bigger because they actually lead to rings. I realize some of these (Luis, anyway) were not a part of rivalry games, but still...

Very happy to see Nelson FINALLY back and crushing the ball again. He had a walk off a week or two ago as well; he actually did the EXACT same thing (extra innings, crushed the ball to left).

JOE CARTER. That sure changed a playoff series. It went from "in progress" to "completed"
