New York Yankees may need to get more out of Alex Rodriguez, who is hitless in eight at-bats in the series but is expected to stay in the cleanup spot behind Robinson Cano. NY Yankees need him to end those struggles as they try to avoid facing elimination in Game 4 with the much-maligned A.J. Burnett scheduled to start. NY Yankees extended their division series winning streak to seven with a 9-3 victory in the conclusion of Game 1 on Saturday, but the Tigers held off New York’s ninth-inning rally for a 5-3 victory Sunday. That contest came on what would have been the travel day to Detroit for Games 3 and 4.
