A look at whats happening all around the majors Tuesday:---BOSTON POPS?Its a big night in the Bronx for David Ortiz and the streaking Red Sox. Playoff-bound Boston can clinch the AL East title with a win or a Toronto loss as Big Papi begins his final three-game series at Yankee Stadium. The 40-year-old slugger, set to retire after this season, has said hed like to be cheered by New York fans as part of his farewell. Meanwhile, left-hander David Price (17-8) goes for his ninth consecutive victory as Boston seeks its 12th straight overall.LIMPING TOWARD OCTOBERThe playoff-bound Indians and Nationals nervously await word on injured players critical to their postseason aspirations. Cleveland ace Corey Kluber (18-9, 3.14 ERA) left his start Monday night after four innings because of right groin tightness, yet the Indians beat Detroit to clinch their first AL Central crown in nine years. The Cy Young Award contender has won 10 of his last 11 decisions for a team already dealing with injuries to pitchers Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar.Meanwhile, Washington catcher Wilson Ramos apparently injured his right knee Monday and had to be helped off the field by trainers. He clutched at his knee after landing awkwardly on it -- he tore the ACL and medial collateral ligament in that knee in 2012. Ramos entered Monday batting .307 with 22 homers and 80 RBI for the NL East champs.KIDS IN A BIG SPOTThe Blue Jays and Orioles begin a pivotal three-game series in Toronto that could bring some clarity to the AL wild-card race. Both teams will turn to young, emerging pitchers in Game 1. Baltimore right-hander Kevin Gausman (8-11, 3.57 ERA) is 6-3 with a 2.57 ERA since Aug. 1. Torontos Aaron Sanchez (13-2, 3.12) has a 4.54 ERA in seven starts since Aug. 1, though he most recently threw six innings of one-run ball against Seattle.STILL IN ITFelix Hernandez (11-6) pitches for the Mariners at Houston in a matchup of AL West teams still clinging to wild-card hopes. Both clubs are chasing Baltimore for the leagues final playoff berth. Mike Fiers (11-8) gets the ball for the Astros.

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca! Hey Kerry, I have a question that is probably pretty minor regarding all that goes on in the playoffs, but it still confused me. Is there a rule to prevent fighters from getting into it immediately out of the box? I could be wrong but after serving coincidental majors, isnt it a requirement that both guys begin the next shift on the bench to head off any potential silliness? As Evgeni Malkin (in Game 1) came from the box having served his major he took a position at the very next faceoff. Like I said, I thought this was against the rules. Anyway, thanks for reading. Paul Kozyn Hi Paul: No question is ever too minor to ask or to answer. There is no rule that restricts players from participating in the very next shift once they have served major penalties for fighting. As you know players are not allowed out of the penalty box until after the first whistle following the expiration of their coincidental major penalties. What takes place at this point is for the penalty box door attendant to hold the "fighters" in their respective box until the linesmen (one or both) arrive on the scene to keep them separated and if necessary escort them to their players bench. The readiness and intervention by the Linesmen wasnt always standard operating procedure and many times I witnessed players continue the fight as soon as they were released from the penalty box. Once the players started to go at it a second time I made a point of instructing the Linesmen to let the fight go the full distance! My objective in this unwritten procedure was two fold: i) Hoping the protracted slugfest would allow the adversaries to get hostilities for one another fully out of their system; ii) To send a message to other would-be combatants that might want to start something (but not really) should they feel a sense of security through any anticipated quick intervention by the linesmen. Usually the sight of two heavyweights being allowed to slug it out in a three minute round while the zebras stood around the ring restored a calming effect to the game. Whenever players exited the penalty box and immediately restarted the fight I always assessed 10 minute misconduct penalties in addition to their second majors for fighting as a result of continuing the fight. (46.5)By virtue of rule 46.10 if a fight was to break out prior to the drop of the puck during the course of a normal face-off, the altercation shall be penalized as if it occurred during the regular playing time.dddddddddddd Back in the day, the three most feared words in hockey by many was when the Ref said to the Linesmen, "Let Em Go!" Also: I received two requests for a clarification on the same rule in the past day from two different sources. Last night Matt Loughlin, an executive with the NJ Devils, passed the question along from one of their fans. This morning, my son Matthew, a fire fighter in London, Ontario passed along the same question from his crew at the fire hall. The question is: "When coincidental minor penalties are called, sometimes the teams play a man short (4 on 4) and sometimes they stay 5 on 5. What determines whether it is 4 on 4 or 5 on 5?" There is only one situation that applies where the teams play 4 on 4 when minor penalties are assessed at the same stoppage of play. It is found in rule 19.1 which states, "When one minor penalty is assessed to one player of each team at the same stoppage in play, these penalties will be served without substitution provided there are no penalties in effect and visible on the clock. Both teams will therefore play four skaters against four skaters for the duration of the minor penalties." The only other penalty to be assessed to allow this situation to exist would be a misconduct penalty in addition to the minor to one or both players at which point the team(s) would place a substitute in the box immediately to serve the minor penalty. When multiple minor penalties are assessed or minor penalties to multiple players from each team the Referee would cancel out as many minor, bench minor or double-minor penalties as possible; which if equal would result in the teams playing 5 on 5. There you have it, one minor penalty to one player of each team at the same stoppage of play where no penalties are being served on the score clock results in 4 on 4 numerical strength! This also applies if Team A player receives a minor penalty at the 8:00 minute mark and following the line changes (power play & penalty killing unit) but prior to the puck drop Team B receives a minor penalty, these two minor penalties are served and the teams will play 4 on 4 as per this rule. The teams are allowed to make additional line changes following Team B receiving the minor penalty. (Theory: penalties assessed at same stoppage of play since 8:00 minutes remains on the game clock.) The resulting face-off would then take place at the nearest face-off dot where the play was stopped to assess the original minor infraction.
