Fifteen years after witnessing the Yankees parade with the World Series trophy, Anthony Volpe played a pivotal role in saving their season and reigniting hopes for a championship. The New York native's grand slam in the third inning propelled the Yankees to an 11-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers, forcing a Game 5 in the World Series.

New York, facing the possibility of being swept, found their offensive spark with Volpe's heroics. The sellout crowd at Yankee Stadium erupted as Volpe's home run energized the team and fans alike. The Yankees, who had struggled to score runs in the previous games, regained their confidence and swagger with a dominant performance.

Volpe's historic night included a grand slam, a double, and a pair of stolen bases, making him the first player in World Series history to achieve such a feat in a single game. His contributions, along with home runs from Gleyber Torres and Austin Wells, propelled the Yankees to victory.

Despite an early home run by Freddie Freeman of the Dodgers, the Yankees rallied behind Volpe's offensive outburst. The team's resilience and determination were on full display as they fought back from a 3-0 series deficit to force a Game 5 showdown.
