Posada ends slump in a pinch
Jorge Posada had one hit in his last 11 at-bats and was hitless in 10 straight pinch-hitting appearances when he stepped up to the plate in the 10th inning of last night's game against Tampa Bay.
By now, you know Posada hit a monster home run off the roof of a restaurant in centerfield and the Yankees won, 8-7.
It was the 18th homer of the season for Posada, but only the fifth in his career as a pinch-hitter.
