Thunder Here and In New York

I didn’t see it as a thunderstorm took out my DirecTV, but Delmon Young homered off CC Sabathia to give Detroit a 1-0 lead in the top of the first. Young hit four home runs in 84 games with Minnesota, then joined the Tigers and hit eight in 40 games.

Update: Verlander strikes out Derek Jeter leading off the bottom of the first, but it’s on a wild pitch and Jeter goes to first. He comes around and scores from third on an Alex Rodriguez grounder to tie the game at one. Verlander gives up a run on a walk but no hits.

Update: Verlander issues a second walk and the Yankees have runners on first and third with two out.

Update: Nick Swisher grounds out to end the inning. Verlander gives up a run without allowing a hit.
