Much maligned New York Yankees slugger Josh Donaldson was the hero the Yankees needed in the tenth inning against the Tampa Bay Rays. The Yankees and their fans were desperate for a win after losing three games on the trot. When Donaldson stepped to the plate, down by three runs and with the bases loaded, magic was in the air. The Yankees posted a clip of the game winning grand slam on their Twitter account.New York Yankees@YankeesWalk-Off. Grand Slam. @BringerOfRain20 🥶108573554Walk-Off.

Perhaps doubt began to creep in for some of the Yankees players as well. Not Josh Donaldson.Mike Mooney@MikeMooney25@Yankees @BringerOfRain20 The bringer of rain. Make it rain, JD!

With most of his numbers below their career averages, fans were disappointed in him. However, there is no disappointment to be found tonight.Jakster@Jakester0051@Yankees @BringerOfRain20 My bad for hating on Josh tonight @Yankees @BringerOfRain20 My bad for hating on Josh tonight 😂The Gospel Of Mark@M_Barbizzle42The confidence in that bay flip is giving me chills.

At the end of the season, this game might be remembered as one of the most integral of the regular season.Josh Donaldson has brought hope and confidence back to the New York YankeesTampa Bay Rays v New York YankeesJosh Donaldson has been one of the most ridiculed and criticized Yankees all season long. The fact that he played the hero is made all the more impressive by how much he has had to overcome this season. It is almost poetic that the way to win was not from their biggest star, but from a struggling player looking to regain the greatness he once had.
