Notes & reviews

Start of game delayed by one hour due to rain
replay,4,rodra001,NYA,davig901,PHI13,O,Y,I,,H $Alex Rodriguez hit a fly ball down the right field line that hit just inside the pole; the ball struck a television camera and was called in play by RF umpire Jeff Nelson; Yankees manager Joe Girardi asked about the call, so crew chief Gerry Davis and three of the other five umpires watched the replay and overturned the call to a home run; this was the first use of replay in post-season
