The New York Yankees' fall baseball run came to an end after suffering three consecutive losses in the Division Series.

A bizarre instance of defensive interference by a Yankees home fan, which cost the team a golden opportunity to tie the game, proved to be decisive.

Facing elimination after losing the first two games, the Yankees experienced a rollercoaster of emotions in the bottom of the sixth inning while trailing 4-2.

With two outs and a runner on first, Volpe hit a ball toward the left-field wall that appeared to clear it. Believing a game-tying two-run home run had been hit, both the Yankees players and the home fans erupted in celebration.

However, upon closer review, it was confirmed that a Yankees fan had reached over the fence and caught the ball.

Following a video review, the home run was nullified due to fan interference, and the play was ruled an RBI double.

Robbed of a tying home run in disheartening fashion, the Yankees failed to mount any further comeback, losing 4-3 and wrapping up their postseason with three straight losses.
