Emmanuel Sanders Had a Touchdown in Front of Him, But Fumbled Without Getting Touched
By Michael Shamburger
Emmanuel Sanders, the speedy Pittsburgh receiver, caught a pass over the middle from Charlie Batch, and for a moment, appeared to have an easy sprint 55-yards to the end zone. Then Sanders tried to shift the ball from his right hand to his left, and the ball comically popped out.
A few minutes later, the Ravens capitalized on the turnover, and grabbed a 20-13 lead.
The Steelers, despite not having QB Ben Roethlisberger, remain in position to win the game thanks to cagey veteran Charlie Batch. Heath Miller made a spectacular dive for the pylon to tie the game at 20 in the 4th. Batch is currently driving Pittsburgh for the go-ahead score with two minutes left.
