- Yanx up 3-0 in the 3rd as ARod's HRed again.
That's 52 for the season and 7 in the last 5 games (actually 4-1/3) leaving him 20-some games to reach 62 and a NYY record. #49 got him the record as a 3Bman.
Imagine if he was able to handle NYC pressure?

- Boston up 2-0 in the 4th

And complaining of arm pain. Detroit is shutting him down, quite possibly for the remainder of the season.
