UPDATE, 2:53 p.m.: Berkman has not exactly endeared himself to Yankees fans so far. He's 2 for 19 since the trade from Houston with one RBI in five games. Now he's knocked out A-Rod out of at least one game.
"It's my contribution to the Yankees so far — not the greatest," he said. "I just remember hitting it and cringing, because it was headed right for him ... I hit it hard, so I hope he's not out very long."
