With Brett Gardner on third and two down in the bottom of the ninth, Robinson Cano drived a breaking ball up the middle for the game winning RBI against the Orioles.

Neither team had scored a run up to that point in the game, as pitching for both teams was dominant. Alex Rodriguez was the only Yankee to have multiple hits.
