The Cleveland Guardians have won a postseason elimination game for the first time in 27 years, thanks to Fry's pinch-hit homer in the seventh inning of ALDS Game 4.
Pinch-hitter David Fry had just launched a 382-foot missile to deep left center that landed on the Little Caesars Pizza sign separating the two bullpens. The home run gave the Guardians a 4-3 lead they wouldn't relinquish, forcing a winner-take-all Game 5 in the ALDS. Cleveland won the game by a final of 5-4.
In addition to his go-ahead homer, Fry perfectly executed a safety squeeze to give Cleveland an insurance run in the top of the ninth.
