DETROIT - Curtis Granderson made two spectacular catches
against his former team and A.J. Burnett came through when the
Yankees needed him most, leading New York past the Detroit Tigers
10-1 Tuesday night to send their AL playoff series back to the
Bronx for a decisive Game 5.
Derek Jeter bounced back from a game-ending strikeout Monday,
putting the Yankees ahead to stay with a two-run double in the
third inning. Granderson also had an RBI double and New York broke
it open with six runs in the eighth.
Shaky all season, Burnett started only because Game 1 was
suspended by rain Friday. He was in trouble in the first after
loading the bases on walks but Granderson made a leaping grab of
Don Kelly's line drive in center field, preventing at least three
runs.
