Padres’ Ethan Salas in lineup for Game 2, set to become MLB’s youngest postseason catcher

In the opening game of the AL Wild Card series, the New York Yankees dominated the Boston Red Sox with a lopsided 9-0 victory. However, Ben Rice's contribution to this impressive performance stands out as a unique moment in Yankees postseason history. Jayson Stark of The Athletic revealed that Rice became the first Yankees player in franchise history to hit a grand slam and another home run in the same postseason game.

This achievement, which no Yankee player, including legends such as Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, and Joe DiMaggio, had ever accomplished, added a new chapter to the team's postseason legacy.
