NEW YORK -- A bad day at the ballpark led to a long-awaited dream come true for Yankees' No. 1 prospect Justus Sheffield.
His Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders lost the Governor's Cup to the Durham Bulls on Saturday with a 6-2 loss in Game 5 of the best-of-five International League championship series and Sheffield contributed to the disappointment with a poor relief outing. But his standout season overall trumped a bad final Triple-A performance of the season, as Sheffield was told after the game that he's being called up to the big leagues for the first time.
