The home crowd was treated to a thrilling, walk-off win.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Jones hit a fastball from Mike Marshall for a 3-run home run. The Yankees, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This one wasn't over until it was over," Jones said, postgame.
