Notes & reviews

Molina came halfway home, then stopped, causing domino-like backup of runners with Gil being tagged out in rundown; good play by Posada running at him before throwing to Martinez
Hill 15th player to homer into the CF batter's background
throw into fifth row of stands
great stop by Brosius, Gil held 3B, Erstad rounded second too far and Yankees ran him down
