I had school the next morning, I went to sleep when it was like 4-0 or whatever thinking there was no way we come back on Pedro, but I wake up n see the paper the next day with Aaron Boone on it n had the biggest smile on my face lol
"The Red Sox have shown that the way to get Giambi out is with high heat." Red Sox proceed to throw Giambi a low breaking ball, and then a low fastball over the middle of the plate, and he hits two home runs.
I remember watching this at 5 years old with my dad, who although is an Orioles fan has always had a hatred for the yankees. It was late and a school night but my dad let me watch it. Being 5 years old I knew baseball as much as a child could, and seeing that 8th inning rally was the moment I became a yankee fan. I fell asleep and my dad woke me up around the 10th, and I still remember seeing him shut out the red Sox like it was yesterday. When Boone hit the home run my dad was so pissed he woke my mom up, and she was more mad at the fact he let me stay up and watch it, but it was one of my first memories and I wouldn't want it any other way
I remember this game and I remember when Aaron Boone sent us to the World Series for the first time in 2 years from 2001-2003. Unfortunately for 5 years Aaron Boone didn’t get us to 5 more World Series Championships from 2018-2023. But Boone managed to make it happen this year and it was absolutely fantastic. God I miss Boone playing as number 19 during his playing days. If he is still gonna be a manager he should go back to wearing number 19 to resemble his 2003 season
I had seats in the front row first base by the ball boy. At the start of the bottom of the 11th the ball boy walked over to us and said " Aaron Boone homerun first pitch"
Before the game started, they showed Fenway Park already being decorated for the World Series. At that point, I knew the Yankees were gonna win. Boston jinxed themselves. In Japanese, we say "bachi", pronounced bah-chee. (Bachi can also be equated with Karma)
The same for the Yankees before blowing a 3-0 lead in the Alcs in 2004 arod said they put the champagne in the Yankees locker room and put the curtain as well
Die hard six fan. I was in college at BU when this happened. I remember gathering in a rec hall with about two hundred people watching this on a giant screen. The first seven innings were like a dream come true. Giant party. When that 8th inning happened it was like someone completely let the air out of the room. We were heartbroken. Silent. I heard sobs. It was like a nightmare. Everything that happened though was completely at the fault of Grady little. Sox did it to themselves and the better team won. Yes, 04 the dream finally became a reality and history was made. But I can’t lie and say 03 doesn’t still hurt.
I'm remember watching Pedro in that 8th inning with a friend that absolutely loathed the Yankees. He was watching just to see them lose.. he hated them so much lol...I'll never forget that 8th inning watching him screaming get him out of there, get pedro out. There was a weird feeling in the air... everybody knew somehow Posada was going to come through. It was like everybody felt it coming except Francona and Pedro. My friend was going nuts because Pedro was left in the game when clearly he was getting hit hard and he had lost it out there. I remember him screaming get Pedro out and the look on his face when the bloop double of Posada landed lol... To his credit he said after the Red Sox deserve to lose this game now. This was the end of Pedro's golden years and his perfection was starting to slightly crack. You could sense he was out there way to long. He was great for seven innings but he was losing his stuff as the game went on. Everybody could see it. I remember staying up to see Boone's HR and everyone else fell a sleep watching the game. I scared the crap out of them and woke them up to the Yankees winning. Memories like that are beyond valuable. Growing up a Yankee fan in the 90s was a gift. You couldn't have had a better youth watching your favorite team. Incredible times to be a fan.
Yes, the Joe Torre era was great (well, most of it). Those Yankees were not the villains that they had been depicted as in numerous sports movies (in the 70's and 80's). When Bernie Williams became a free agent and turned down a more lucrative offer to stay with the Yankees, that told me that that team was a class group of guys.
I grew up a Braves fan, but I saw how this series ended and started watching the '04 ALCS during Game 4. That comeback was some of the most exciting baseball I have ever seen, and I know such an extreme comeback against your biggest rival had to have been cathartic for Red Sox fans.
I mean, it was deserved in my opinion, given what Sox nation did to Bill Buckner. Like, no man who made a mistake like that in a World Series should have to suffer the way he did.
I must be a glutton for punishment because I was absolutely devastated for weeks after this happened but I still came back to watch it. Finally got them back three next year tho
I watched this game live. I was living in Dominican Republic back then. Everyone was watching that game because the majority are Boston fans because of Pedro Martinez, Ortiz and Ramirez. Great night to be a Yankee fan.
I’m probably biased a bit since this was when I was growing up(born in 88’) but I feel this was some of the best baseball ever and I miss it. Rivalries were legit and people actually hated each other and shit, it was just real baseball IMO
There was another video of the 2003 ALCS game 7 (which I can't find now) that started with Joe Buck saying, "It's the two most magical words in all of sports: game seven." I'm paraphrasing because I can't find the video to get the exact wording.
I’m an orioles fan but growing up during this was some of the best baseball Man good times. Orioles about to be good AF and finally Get us a World Series after decades man. Imagine when we spend on free agency now plus still have number 1 and top 5 picks on the minors and shit. Can’t wait
I tear up with joy every time I watch this. I tear up for other reasons when David Wells was useless in the World Series that year. And the collapse against the same Red Sox in 2004. That's what makes baseball exhilarating and depressing, depending on the results. I say that as a lifelong Yankees fan who has watched his share of triumphs ... and who has gone nearly 15 years waiting for something to happen.
He's at least slightly better in baseball than football. I think part of the reason he has such a monotonous, reserved delivery is because he grew up listening to his dad announce baseball. Baseball is generally a more chill game to announce with less yelling and shouting and superlatives. Plus, back when his dad announced, all announcers were just super tame compared to now. Remember Pat Sumerall back in the '90s? It was like listening to your grandpa tell stories about his garden.
This was life as its meant to be by our creator...not sure what people are doing now. Ordered to stay home..ordered to not work..ordered to forego the joys in life. My GOD your men arent you?
The Red Sox lost that game because of their own damn pride, why oh why did you leave Pedro in that long after he fuckked up over and over and over again. By the way I’m a Yankees fan and I saw this live on TV in Philadelphia at College amongst Yankee hater Phillies fans
When im feeling down… i watch this. It makes me happy. It Brings joy.
I wish this never happened because Boone would not be the Manager now.
I’m on the opposite side of that feeling🤣😢😢😢.only way to get over that was 2004.sports is crazy!!!peace my friendly foe😂
Non-stop goosebumps from 8:05 to 9:20. I watched this game live as a kid, but damn I wish I would've been old enough to really appreciate it.
I had school the next morning, I went to sleep when it was like 4-0 or whatever thinking there was no way we come back on Pedro, but I wake up n see the paper the next day with Aaron Boone on it n had the biggest smile on my face lol
remember being 8 years old staying up past bedtime to watch this. Surreal
Saame
I was 10 lol
Me too. My brother and I
Me too. I was 9
I was 13 pulling for the Red Sox but it was still worth it to see Aaron Boone hit a walk off being a Reds fan
i was born that night. October 16th 2003. my dad and the doctor were watching this game at the hospital
Nice memory and story
i cannot believe there are adults born after 2000, hard to get the mind around
I hope you were already out.
I was at this game, upper deck, behind home plate....Never forget how the deck was shaking, amazing moment in my life
Yeah you could see it shaking even on the live cast that night on TV. Amazing
I miss the old super steep upper deck.
You lucky SOB!!!
I remember being just a kid watching this and being in tears. Goosebumps right now
"The Red Sox have shown that the way to get Giambi out is with high heat."
Red Sox proceed to throw Giambi a low breaking ball, and then a low fastball over the middle of the plate, and he hits two home runs.
Can’t teach this stuff lol
Mussina was the reason the yankees won that game
can't teach clutch
No giambi
No it was Grady Little
It was all of them. Except Soriano. Lol
Nope Boone was the reason
Without a doubt my favorite game in the history of baseball.

Mariano running out to collapse and cry on the mound never gets old. 💕
Greatest game i have ever seen.
Im getting hyped for the 2019 Yankees postseason! this is a great start
Yes
Prediction: Yankees will lose in the ALCS to Houston in 6 games on a walk off by Altuve
Wow u a genius
Ant Boogie Anddddd that hit was rigged
Before the game started, they showed Fenway Park already being decorated for the World Series. At that point, I knew the Yankees were gonna win. Boston jinxed themselves. In Japanese, we say "bachi", pronounced bah-chee. (Bachi can also be equated with Karma)

@@Frankieefootballmundialyup. You're both right.
@@Frankieefootballmundialwouldn’t the same be said for the Giants the year before?
Matsui's number needs to be retired by the Yankees. He was great and absolutely clutch for them.
What he did in 2009 World Series was unbelievable
WE NEED THIS ENERGY TONIGHT! AND THE NEXT 3 GAMES!! BOONE REMEMBER THE MAGIC AND LET IT FLOW

I mean the ghosts come out after 7th inning at the old yankee stadium
You deserve your misery. Time travel will undo what you stole in 04, 7, 13, and 18.
I remember watching that game, Boone’s home run, and the look on Brett Boone’s face in the announcer’s booth.
Does anyone else watch this and just hate Joe Buck? It’s game 7 dude show some emotion
I'm remember watching Pedro in that 8th inning with a friend that absolutely loathed the Yankees.

Grady Little was the numbskull manager in this situation. Francona was hired in 04'.
Unlike my youth which has been filled with postseason disappointment every year

@@evanmalone2806 Francona should have told them to give up after down 3-0. Those pieces of crap ruined everything.
@@evanmalone2806 correct Grady Little my mistake
This moment and the Chambliss home run, were unforgettable

You mean for Yankees fans.
I must be a glutton for punishment because I was absolutely devastated for weeks after this happened but I still came back to watch it. Finally got them back three next year tho
We had it in the bag bro but fucking Grady Little!
This was the first game I ever listened to on the radio. I woke up the whole house when Boone hit that homerun
Honestly. Pedro VS Clemons. Yankees VS Red Sox. In a Game 7. Sports doesn't get any better than that. And those line up for both teams...shheesshhh!
I watched this game live. I was living in Dominican Republic back then. Everyone was watching that game because the majority are Boston fans because of Pedro Martinez, Ortiz and Ramirez. Great night to be a Yankee fan.
The last time the old Yankee Stadium shook
That is true. I miss old Yankee stadium so much
@@lawrencerdugo8020 i never got to go to it sadly
The difference in this game was the utilization of the bullpens.
The Yankees used theirs perfectly, while the Red Sox horrifically screwed it up.
I’m probably biased a bit since this was when I was growing up(born in 88’) but I feel this was some of the best baseball ever and I miss it. Rivalries were legit and people actually hated each other and shit, it was just real baseball IMO
Agreed, baseball doesn’t have the feel it once had

When Jorge posada hit that double rbi fire
I’m an orioles fan but growing up during this was some of the best baseball
Man good times. Orioles about to be good AF and finally
Get us a World Series after decades man. Imagine when we spend on free agency now plus still have number 1 and top 5 picks on the minors and shit.
Can’t wait
This is why baseball would never survive without the Red Sox vs. Yankees.
As always, Joe Buck with the energy of discussing an IRS Audit.
At least he moved to ESPN.
I was screaming at the tv “take Pedro out” before the possada tied the game
An all time great matchup

Watching baseball nowadays it's unfathomable to watch the manager not pull Pedro in that situation.
Francona would've taken him out.
The best baseball game EVER
No that was the 2004 alcs, game 4
Noche magica en ese 2003.
Man those cámara flashes where so awsome, we don’t see that anymore
Baseball in New York is always something special.
One of the best worst days of my life as a boy. It still stings but atleast me and my dad remember it together.
Crazy how much we hated Pedro in NY. He was a terror to us Yankee fans. So happy whenever we got to him
Fun fact: Aaron Boone would later become manager of the Yankees 15 years later.
Dam..I hated the yankee but I love watching this games..
Yankees right now
"I Used to rule the world"
As a diehard Yankee fan Trot Nixon scared the shit out of me always, Yankee Killer
Voujdjr no it was big papi
Nixon,edgar, griffey,and juan gonzalez.
R.I.P Mr. Wakefield. I will never forget ur knuckleball..
No one talks about how big Giambi was in this game to come up with 2 solos
He definately stepped up with his hitting prowess that night and had a good 2003 season overall
If you are a Yankee fan your blessed..I think we are going all the way this year2019..World series bound.
cnniz fakenewz I’m an Indians fan but since they suck right now I like the Yankees and yes there going to the world series
Good luck. I think you will be facing the dodgers
How'd that work out?
@@greyk610 the astros cheated
この試合、ヤンキースタジアムで生観戦してた！懐かしい！
11:51...never noticed Wakefield collapsed at the mound atter walk off HR
I think that was Mariano, Wakefield walked right off the field
Since this game loss 14family members Including Mom DAD Aunt's Uncle's ALL REST IN POWER TO ALL
One of the best games ever
Good editing bro
Sox blew this game big time.
What a kind of bulpen had the Yankees. Clemens, Mussina, Wells, Rivera. I remember that game and the Boston manager had the blame of this lose.
if they were in different leagues this would’ve been the WS every year during the early 2000s
my favorite part of the game os David Wells yelling FUCK!!
God Joe Buck is unbearable...
He's the best.
He's at least slightly better in baseball than football. I think part of the reason he has such a monotonous, reserved delivery is because he grew up listening to his dad announce baseball.

@@geoffbruce8605 hhahahahaha
He hates the Yankees
Mussina + Giambi + Mariano and ofc Boone
All we did was awake a sleeping monster. 04 still hurts lol
Giambi led then to the win
I remember watching every pitch of this game..loved the outcome but we lost the world series to the marlins 4 games to 2...smh. what a choke
Soriano was a strikeout machine
Interesting that the plate ump was in both gray slacks and gray polo shirt..
Good coaching left Pedro in there till he gave all 5 runs
Anyone know where I can get Jon Miller’s call? It’s so much better than Joe Bucks..
“that might send the Yankees to the World Series”…. ya think Joe Buck!?!
2:18 lol I thought he was the coach for a sec lol
I remember thinking this game was over when Ortiz homered
Unfortunately my then Florida Marlins ruined that dream
Yea and Boston reverse the curse the following year
The end of grady little, should have pulled pedro.... I was pissed watching, you knew the yankees were gonna take it
Francona was 1 out away from being fired in 04, and the Sox blowing up that team, which would have resulted in the Curse living on. Rivera blew it.
11:32 what the hell was that throw? Looked like a practice pitch !
Giambi's best game as a Yankee
This was life as its meant to be by our creator...not sure what people are doing now. Ordered to stay home..ordered to not work..ordered to forego the joys in life. My GOD your men arent you?
The last great moment in old Yankee Stadium.
0:20 God, FOX just wrecked the art of the pregam intro. The sound effects, the noise...so annoying.
DA MAKE SURE DAT HE WATCH DA PLAYOFFS SO DA CITY OF NEW YAWK LOOKS GOOD BOSS
Iwas at old colony fliking my lights becuz it was during quiet time
Yes 👍
5:19 오우 카림 !
I almost don't care the Sox won in 2004. We beat them in the ALCS in 1999 AND 2003. We're 2-1 in the ALCS against them.
Vladiator kicked your ass in 18 though. Granted it was the divisional but still.
calbassas87 Turns out teams are cheating 😔
@@mycontentistrash1243 Didn't cheat. Besides, you losing to that Astros team actually made me feel sympathy for you.
It would’ve been better if the Yankees won the World Series In 2003 I’m not sure if the redsox still would’ve won it the following year
@@calbassas87 Granted they cheated. The 2018 Red Sox got caught cheating, investigated and punished. They're no better than the Astros in this one.
The Boston managers 😂😂😂😂😂
Talk about a meatball
was like a home run derby pitch
The Red Sox lost that game because of their own damn pride, why oh why did you leave Pedro in that long after he fuckked up over and over and over again. By the way I’m a Yankees fan and I saw this live on TV in Philadelphia at College amongst Yankee hater Phillies fans
Mariano touching 96 wow
Thats how a real baseball team hits. Take
Notes aaron and gincarlo. Use the whole fn field!
Judge uses the whole field, always has
Boston got way too close in 03. They should have been out in 6 games
What goes around comes around Mr. BOONE! we're coming for you're squad go ASTROS!
What goes around comes around. Asterisks.
That did not age well...…..Trashtros…...
2 time champs the Stros are!
Sox should have took Pedro out one batter sooner...
Hey Terry, TAKE PEDRO OUT!
What is that noise at 11:46. It’s very annoying wtf is that it sounds like a video game sound when you mess up
fox sound effect for mlb games
It's not easy giving up such a monumental Home Run to A Keebler Elf...
You have school tomorrow. Turn that shit off and go to bed.
So happy Buck is gone from FOX. Worst baseball announcer of all time.
But the new announcer from fox sucks even more
07:23 Ortiz started to juice in 2003 and that's the year he got caught, so literally his roided bat almost ruined the night there!
Jajajaja hater
"Literally" meaning not at all, per usual.
Never forget that night, long as I live FUK!!
Not much sleeping goin on after that one!! 🥳
