Posada Calls Six-RBI Game 'Special'
May 8, 2014 5:06 AM
Jorge Posada got a chance to play on Saturday afternoon against the Rays and made it count.
Recently benched as the regular designated hitter for the Yankees, Posada hit a grand slam and finished with six RBI in a New York victory.
It was his first appearance since being benched six days ago.
"It's special," Posada said. "I got an opportunity today to play -- and it's tough to sit around. It's not easy to be sitting here and look at everybody playing."
In the final year of a four-year, $52.4 million contract, Posada turns 40 on Wednesday.
