Will Yankees’ Aaron Boone’s ‘Grady Little moment’ in World Series cost him his job?
In Game 7 of the 2003 AL Championship Series, former Boston Red Sox manager Grady Little kept in Pedro Martinez in the eighth inning against the New York Yankees with a 5-2 lead. Five batters later, the score was 5-5 and the Yankees won via an 11th-inning Boone home run to knock out Boston, ultimately losing to the Marlins in the World Series.
