McCoven, I seek your knowledge. 

According to Cot's, Andres Torres is making peanuts since he was brought here on a minor league contract last year.  Do the Giants have to re-negotiate with him to keep him around next year, or is he under team control for a little while?  How long?  Does he have enough service time to be eligible for arbitration, or does the way in which he was acquired negate all of the above and just mean he's treated like a regular free agent?

A-Rod hit what looked like a home run off the right field foul pole against the Rays today, and it was contested in MLB's first use of instant replay.  After umpires consulted the replay, they upheld the home run call.

But watch the clip from the TV broadcast.  The Yankees announcers point out that the ball clearly hits a catwalk in foul territory.
