Unforgettable MLB Playoff Blowouts That Shattered Records and Defied Expectations
Boston Red Sox 16, New York Yankees 1 (2018 ALDS Game 3)
Nearly 20 years after their power display in the ’99 ALDS, the Red Sox came back for more against the Yankees in 2018. Both teams traded wins to start the series, but Boston came alive in Game 3, knocking in 10 runs by the end of the fourth inning. The team extended its lead throughout the game, building momentum all the way into the ninth. Infielder Brock Holt hit a two-out, two-run shot that inning and became the first and only player to hit for the cycle in a playoff game. The Red Sox never looked back after this game, eliminating the Yankees in Game 4 before winning the ALCS and defeating the Dodgers in the World Series.
