1998 Red Sox Walk Offs
From SoSH
- 4/10 - Unquestionably one of the greatest Walk-Offs ever as the Red Sox rallied for 7 runs in the 9th inning of their Home Opener against the Seattle Mariners. Troy O'Leary, Mark Lemke, and Darren Bragg all scored scored before Mo Vaughn stepped to the plate with the bases loaded. The Hit Dog's Grand Slam off Paul Spoljaric then scored Mike Benjamin, Nomar Garciaparra, and John Valentin to complete the rally.
- 4/12 - After Jim Leyritz tied the game in the 9th with a Solo homer off Heathcliff Slocumb, Reggie Jefferson's pinch-hit single scored Troy O'Leary with the winning run.
- 4/15 - Troy O'Leary singled home John Valentin off T.J. Mathews after Mo Vaughn was intentionally walked. Dennis Eckersley picked up the win in relief.
