Oswaldo Cabrera’s key hustle play sparks Yankees’ comeback
NY Post
CHICAGO — The dictionary definition for “manufactured run” might now have to include Oswaldo Cabrera’s headshot.
With the Yankees’ offense sputtering, trailing 2-1 in the top of the seventh inning against the White Sox on Wednesday, Cabrera provided a much-needed jolt of energy.
After hitting a leadoff single off reliever Justin Anderson, Cabrera swiped second base.
Then, the 25-year-old laced up his cleats and didn’t look back.
Alex Verdugo launched a ball deep into the right-field gap. Dominic Fletcher raced from right field and made a lunging grab but fell over center fielder Luis Robert Jr. in the process.
Cabrera, seeing the bodies flail in the outfield, tagged up and scored all the way from second on what was scored as a sacrifice fly.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
