Yesterday on Pinstriped Bible

A Chance - Pinstripe Pundits | Chris Albin: The injury to Francisco Cervelli has altered the Yankees' catching depth throughout the system, with Austin Romine getting a chance to prove himself on the big league club.
A Second Chance - The Times - Tribune | Donnie Collins: Chris Bootcheck figured he would be out of work this season, and even had a coaching job lined up, but then the Yankees came calling and now he has given up only one run in three starts for the RailRiders.
Taking Advantage - The Times - Tribune | Donnie Collins: Thomas Neal has used last year's demotion to Double-A as a chance to work on the mental side of his game and now he's taking a new approach in his return to Triple-A this year.
Joey Looseleafs - ESPN New York | Wallace Matthews: Starting the left handed Travis Hafner against a lefty starter is something Joe Girardi would never do, but diverting from the Binder for one day paid off with success.

To the DL?: Kevin Youkilis will have an MRI on his back tomorrow and then a DL decision will be made.
Yankees Magic: The Yankees are now 4-0 in one-run games this season.
Another Upgrade: The recently DFA'd (again) Casper Wells would be an upgrade over Ben Francisco.
April Mo: Mariano Rivera collected his ninth save yesterday, making it his new record for April.
Brawl - CBS Sports | Matt Snyder: A High School baseball game had a benches clearing brawl that resulted in 36 ejections and one arrest.
