Notes & reviews

Chris Dickerson requested time as pitcher Alex Cobb started his delivery; HP umpire Tony Randazzo did not grant time; Jayson Nix was running on the pitch and catcher Jose Molina came out of his crouch to catch the pitch and throw to 2B; the Yankees thought the pitch was high and that Randazzo was blocked from seeing it by Molina; Yankees Manager Joe Girardi yelled from the bench and was told to stop by Randazzo; when Girardi yelled again he was ejected by Randazzo
