Did anybody see the Yankees get attacked by ants?
I'm just hearing about it this morning. It was yesterday's game. Did anybody see it? Do you know if there's video?

1. They were midges, not ants

Tiny mosquito-related bugs that breed near lakeshores. There was a funny photo of two Yankees spraying each other with insect repellent in the paper today.

Welcome to the Great Lakes. Detroit had problems all summer with seagulls in the ballpark!

2. It was unbelievable.

Every time I saw Joba Chamberlain get ready to throw, there was 15-20 bugs on his neck and more all over his face.

If I were the ump I would have treated that situation like heavy rain. There's no way those teams should have had to play during that.
