Red Sox and Tigers Resume Play After Power Outage Delays Game 3 of ALCS

Not even Major League Baseball is safe from the perils of a power failure during a big game.

Here's what happened instead:

Mariano Rivera Bobblehead Night a Disaster as Yankees Receive Shipment Late

Even Mariano Rivera can't make the save in this situation.
