Down 3-0 in ALCS, Yanks turn to ’04 Red Sox for inspiration

FILE - Boston Red Sox's David Ortiz celebrates as he rounds first base after hitting the game-winning home run in the 12th inning against the New York Yankees, during Game 4 of the AL championship series on Oct. 17, 2004, at Boston's Fenway Park. On Sunday, Oct. 23, 2022, the New York Yankees have turned to an unusual source for inspiration: the 2004 Boston Red Sox. That year, Boston became the only team in major league history to overcome a 3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven postseason series, winning four straight against the Yankees in the ALCS and going on to its first World Series title since 1918.
