Juan Soto smashed a three-run home run in the 10th inning on Saturday that lifted the New York Yankees over Cleveland 5-2 and into their first World Series since 2009.
The 25-year-old Dominican outfielder crushed a fastball from Cleveland pitcher Hunter Gaddis over the center-field wall to score the deciding runs in a thriller that sent the Yankees into their record 41st World Series overall.
"It sounds amazing," Soto said. "It's the best feeling in the game whenever you win and take your team to the World Series. It's the best feeling you can ever have. That's what we play for."
