Watch one Yankees fan go from very confident to very sad as Rafael Devers hits a game-tying homer
In the top of the ninth inning of Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Yankees fans were feeling pretty good.
One Yankees fan in particular was feeling very good. So good, in fact, that he decided to start recording from his seat in the right-field bleachers at Yankee Stadium -- all the better to capture the celebration when his team nailed down the win. Except, well:
