Nick Swisher hit a walk-off home run (photo by Bill Kostroun) off -- I so love this term -- the Fighting Showalters (in reality the Baltimore Orioles' Koji Uehara) in the bottom of the ninth.
It was his second walk-off shot with the Yankees and it comes exactly one-year ago today when he stroked that leather against the T-Bay Devil Rays.
And that propelled New York to a 3-2 win to arrest a three-game slide.
Time to get your acts together coz it's a long road trip for the men in pinstripes.
Said manager Joe Girardi after NY pitcher AJ Burnett gave Swish the now traditional cream pie in the face after a walk-off, "Was that cream pie fresh? We haven't done that in a while."
Two on the D-Rays. Let's roll.
