In 2006, the Yankees won their division and faced the Tigers in the first round of the playoffs. Yankees had home field advantage, but split the two home games. They went to Detroit tied at 1-1 and lost both games. Sounds like deja vu all over again, doesn't it? One more win by the Tigers tonight and the result will be nearly exactly the same as in 2006. And the Yankees are doing their best to cooperate by pitching their worst starting pitcher, A.J. Burnett. I'm a Yankees fan, but have absolutely no confidence in Burnett.
