Yankees Win in Extras
Bronx Yankees starter Kenta Maeda turned in a top-notch performance against the Detroit Tigers at Tiger Stadium. The result was a win for the Yankees, 6-2. The Yankees, at 59-54, lead by one game in their division.

The result might have been different for Bronx, had it not been for Bob Nieman. The left fielder produced a run-scoring single in the top of the 12th inning to put the Yankees ahead, 3-2. For the game, Nieman had 1 double and 1 single in 6 at-bats.

"I have a really good team behind me," Maeda said. "I trust them 100 percent."
