Notes & reviews

Torii Hunter came into the plate standing and bumped catcher Ivan Rodriguez; Rodriguez then gave Hunter a small shove and started walking towards the mound; Hunter took a couple of steps and pushed Rodriguez, who turned and, after removing his mask, tried to get back to Hunter; plate umpire Ted Barrett restrained Rodriguez, preventing him from connecting with an open-handed swing at Hunter; both benches emptied but there was no further action; both players were ejected by Barrett; a few minutes later, Yankees pitching coach Dave Eiland fainted in the dugout; he had been fighting a cold and had not eaten since early in the afternoon
Debut game for Kevin Jepsen
Debut game for Freddy Sandoval
