Popi got jammed; them Yankees were sweating bullets in the 9th. Detroit almost closed to within 1 game of the Yanks in the wildcard race.

Mientkiewicz saved the Yankees today with his glove work at first base. Made me long for Mr. 'All Thumbs' Giambi to be out there.

Rivera doesn’t give you much to work with but Ortiz muffed one hittable pitch then pulled pulled an inside pitch for strike 2. He went up there looking to swing and he certainly fouled off ball 3.
