The New York Yankees have become the comeback team of the year in 2009 winning a number of games by coming from behind and putting together a streak of walk off victories. Joba Chamberlain pitched 6 effective innings and only allowed three runs, but was not as good as his counterpart Matt Garza who only allowed 1 run over five innings in a very quality start. Things fell apart for the Rays in the eighth as they allowed a bases loaded walk and then were the victim of an error that tied the game but could have been an inning ending double play. Mark Teixeira scored the tying run on the error and Alex Rodriguez came across the plate to take the 4-3 lead right before the end of the inning.

Mariano Rivera was lights out in the 9^th inning as usual to get his 13^th save of the season.
