WATCH: Soriano's walk-off blast crushes Mariners, gives Yankees 3-1 series lead

+

On this day in Yankees history 13 years ago, rookie Alfonso Soriano came up big for his team, as he blasted a two-run walk-off homer against lockdown Mariners closer Kaz Sasaki to give the Yankees a 3-1 lead in the ALCS. The Mariners broke the '98 Yankees AL record with 116 wins, but they could not stop the 2001 Yankees, who dismissed them in five games. Sori not Sori.
