Trying to close out the Division Series in Game 4 with a five-out save against the Cleveland Indians, Mariano Rivera of the New York Yankees suffers a rare postseason hiccup as Sandy Alomar Jr. ties the game 2-2 with a two-out home run in the eighth inning. The Tribe would win the 3-2 on Omar Vizquel’s walk-off hit in the ninth. Cleveland would win the series in five games, winning the finale 4-3.
