Stop this slide!

The Yankees recovered from their three-game slide against the BoSox with a thrilling, come-from-behind 9-8 victory against the New York Mets Friday night on a dropped Alex Rodriguez popup.

The Yankees squandered leads throughout the game, and a poor eighth-inning performance by closer Mariano Rivera let the Mets get ahead, but heads-up running by Derek Jeter and Mark Teixeira hustled in enough runs on the error to win the game.
