With a one-run lead heading into the bottom of the ninth inning, the New York Yankees generally feel pretty confident about their chances thanks to closer Aroldis Chapman.
You can add a couple of capable gloves to that list of saviors, with Brett Gardner and Ronald Torreyes preserving the win over the Cleveland Indians on Saturday night.
9th-inning leather flashing = CLUTCH
The first catch by Gardner looked more spectacular and robbed the tying and potential go-ahead runs on a homer, but the second grab by Torreyes was just as vital to the Yanks getting the win.
This type of leather could make the boys from the Bronx a real threat as the Wild Card team in the American League.
