Aaron Boone Calls Guardians' Comeback Win vs. Yankees 'an Amazing Game to Witness'

The Cleveland Guardians came back to defeat the New York Yankees 7-5 in 10 innings in Game 3 of the American League Championship Series thanks to two-run homers from Jhonkensy Noel in the ninth and David Fry in the 10th.

This matchup was an instant classic, and even Yankees manager Aaron Boone called it an "amazing game to witness" despite his team coming up short.

The Yankees were down 3-1 in the top of the eighth inning before Aaron Judge smacked a two-run, two-strike, two-out homer off Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase to tie the game at three.

Giancarlo Stanton then smoked a solo homer to put the Yanks up 4-3.

A Gleyber Torres sacrifice fly scored Anthony Volpe in the top of the ninth, and the Yankees led 5-3 going into the bottom of the frame with closer Luke Weaver on the mound.

José Ramírez led off with a single, but Josh Naylor then grounded out into a double play. Lane Thomas then nearly hit the ball out of the park before it hit the top of the center field wall and bounced back into play, resulting in a double.

Noel then came off the bench to pinch-hit and crushed a 1-0 pitch to left field to tie the game.

In the top of the 10th inning, Yankees third baseman Jazz Chisholm cracked a high chopper toward second baseman Andrés Giménez. The ball could have easily bounced over Giménez's head or Chisholm could have beaten the throw. However, Giménez made a tremendous play to get Chisholm out after a Naylor stretch.

Two batters later, Volpe struck out to end the Yankees' threat.

In the bottom of the 10th, Bo Naylor hit a leadoff single and advanced to third after a Brayan Rocchio sacrifice bunt and Steven Kwan groundout. Up strolled Fry, who pinch-hit for Kyle Manzardo, the hero in the third thanks to a two-run blast.

The No. 2 spot proved productive on this evening, as Fry cracked a two-run homer for the victory.

Needless to say, the win probability odds resembled a roller coaster, as noted by Sarah Langs of MLB.com.

The Yankees now lead the best-of-seven series two games to one. Game 4 will take place in Cleveland on Friday at 8:08 p.m. ET.
