Notes & reviews

  • replay,8,yound003,DET,demud901,DET05,O,Y,I,,H $Delmon Young's fly ball to right center hit the concrete and the metal railing behind the yellow line at the top of the padded wall; the ball was ruled in play and Young reached 2B; Tigers manager Jim Leyland talked with the umpires, who huddled briefly; crew chief Dana DeMuth watched the replay and overturned the call to a home run
