I complain about Derek Jeter's defense a lot, but he just made one of those plays that makes it easy to forgive him for his limited range on ground balls. Men on 2nd and 3rd in the top of the 12th, two outs, Nixon hits a flair down the left field line. Jeter went all out, caught the ball in fair territory, and then his momentum carried him head first into the stands. He came out bloodied, but he held on to the ball. He played it like it was the 7th game of the world series. Giambi will bat for him in the bottom of the 12th after a Cairo triple leading off the inning.

Update: Millar comes in from the outfield to be a fifth infielder. Big shift on Giambi, but Millar is playing as if he's at third.

Update: Giambi strikes out. He looks thin after his illness.

Update: They put a shift on for Sheffield, moving Millar to first this time, but Leskanic hits Sheffield. 1st and 3rd with one out for A-Rod, and Millar moves back to the outfield.

Update: A-Rod is walked to load the bases. Millar is coming back into the infield to play first and McCarty is moved between 2nd and 1st again. Bubba Crosby batting.

Update: Crosby grounds to Reese, who gets the force at the plate. It's up to Bernie Williams, who is 0 for 5 today, defense back to normal.

Update:Williams strikes out, and looked bad doing so. To the 13th. This is one of the best Yankees-Red Sox game I've seen in a long time. Both teams have had plenty of chances, but great plays and great pitching in tough situations have prevailed so far.
