Interleague game with no DH. Mike Mussina doesn't like Posada catching him any more; he likes Wil Nieves, the back-up catcher. The Yankees wanted to keep Posada's hot bat in the line-up, so they threw him in at first. They were thinking of trying the same thing with Johnny Damon too. Every time Damon plays cf anymore, he gets hurt.
