Yankees hold on to beat the O's as the Tigers hit the road to New York

CC Sabathia turned and looked over his right shoulder, watching intently after Nate McLouth turned on a 93 mph fastball and sent it soaring down the right-field line.  McLouth's long drive was called foul by the slimmest of margins - hello, Jeffrey Maier - and New York hung on to beat Baltimore 3-1 Friday in the deciding Game 5 of the AL division series.  With Alex Rodriguez benched, the Yankees advanced to the AL championship series against the Detroit Tigers, starting Saturday night in the Bronx.  The Orioles were in a foul mood, stung on a close play in right that echoed what happened across the street at the old Yankee Stadium in the 1996 AL championship opener, on a fly ball involving the young Maier that still stirs emotions in Baltimore.
