Ramirez is the fourth player in Red Sox history to hit a walkoff homer against the Yankees that turned a deficit into a win. Joe Cronin hit one off Johnny Broaca in the first game of a doubleheader in 1935, Sammy White off Allie Reynolds in 1953 and Bill Mueller off Mariano Rivera in 2004.<br /><br />The Red Sox trailed the Yankees, 5-2, with two outs in the ninth inning before erupting for five runs and the win. <b>It's only the second time in team history that Red Sox beat the Yankees in a game they trailed by three or more runs with two outs in the ninth inning. The other such game came on June 2, 1908.</b> Boston trailed New York by the same 5-2 score with two outs in the ninth inning in the second game of a doubleheader before scoring four runs for the win. The big blow was delivered by Bob Unglaub whose fly ball with two outs and the bases loaded was dropped for an error by Hall-of-Famer Wee Willie Keeler.allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.com
