What a game. Tough break for Jeter, I like him. TBS is really really biased for the Yankees. It was good to see Detroit show some heart, rally and come back from Valverde's mistakes. I don't want to see Valverde again and neither does Mitch Albom. No way Tigers can trust Valverde again

NEW YORK — Uh-oh. Not him!
It was a collective plea, an ensemble gasp, a worry so loud from Detroit fans you could hear it all the way here in Yankee Stadium. After a wonderful night full of great defense, timely hits and incredible escape-artist pitching by Doug Fister, the Tigers went to their closer in the bottom of the ninth, and a shiver of horror shot through Tiger Nation.
Papa Semi-Grande had entered Saturday night’s game.
Detroit had this game in hand. Valverde nearly gave it away. Some things are just that simple. The noble thinking is you win as a team and you lose as a team, but there is nothing you can pin on any Tiger for those four runs except bad pitching by Valverde. All the Tigers fielders did was watch the balls sail....
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
