Detroit 3, Yankees 2 (Detroit wins series, 3-2)

. . . . in lieu of flowers. See me next year.

Yankees 10, Tigers 1 (ALDS tied 2-2)

I'm too, too tired.

Detroit 5, New York 3

1. Nobody blame Garcia.

2. Honestly, I thought Cano was going to win it.

Yankees 9, Tigers 3 (Yanks lead series 1-0)

Grand slam, anyone? Day-in, day-out, it is becoming apparent that Robinson Cano may be the most valuable, the most unreplaceable, Yankee of them all.

Except, of course, for Mo.

PPD, Rain

On balance, bad for the Yankees.

The Tigers looked tense--it took one blunder (the passed ball) and two ground balls to tie the game. Meanwhile, CC, early looked the better of the two pitchers, with the rising fastball and command of the strike zone.

The homer was a one-off--Young simply stuck his bat in front of the ball and the porch came into play. CC was going to get better. Verlander was up around 30 pitches already . . .

And now we get AJ in Game 4, probably.
