On this day in Yankee history...
1920: Ed Barrow resigns as manager of the Red Sox to become the general manager of the Yankees. Barrow led Boston to the World Championship in 1918 and will find even greater success in New York.
1991: Buck Showalter replaces Stump Merrill as Yankee manager. At age 35, Showalter becomes the youngest active manager in the major leagues.
2009: The Yankees even the World Series by taking Game 2 at home 3-1 over the Phillies. A.J. Burnett and Mariano Rivera combine for the win while Mark Teixeira and Hideki Matsui go deep against the Phils' Pedro Martinez.
