Anthony Volpe, mired in a defensive slump, had just crushed a game-tying, solo homer off Rays closer Pete Fairbanks, clapping back at the two-run, go-ahead blast that Josh Lowe launched off Devin Williams in the top of the inning. Austin Wells quickly followed with a single, putting the winning run on with one out.

Wells lost track of how many outs there were in the bottom of the ninth, making the final out of a tied game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Perhaps nobody was happier the Yankees won Wednesday night than catcher Austin Wells, after his embarrassing mental lapse on the bases cost New York an opportunity in the ninth inning
