Their surprising season came to a sudden finish late Saturday night with a 5-2 loss in 10 innings to the New York Yankees in Game 5 of an American League Championship Series that seemed to have a little bit of everything.

It was a moment 15 years in the making, a deep drive that cut through the October sky, climbing high and far and landing in the World Series. The Yankees acquired Juan Soto last winter to return them to the stage they once owned.
