Welcome to the bigs Brett Gardner. The scrappy, speedy rookie came up in the nine-run seventh inning and lined an RBI single into right - big-league hit and RBI No. 1.
"It meant a lot," Gardner said. "Heck, it took long enough, three nights. Actually, before I came up here, I took a couple of o-fers, so it seemed longer than it really was."
The fans gave him a standing ovation.
"These are the greatest fans in the world," said Gardner, who went 1 for 4. "I'm really lucky to be here playing for the greatest franchise in all of sports. It was a great moment."
