Berti (calf) went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run for Double-A Somerset in a rehab game Saturday.
In his first game action since suffering a calf strain May 24, Berti crushed a three-run blast in the fourth inning. Considering the length of his absence, the versatile veteran may need at least a few more rehab games before he's ready to rejoin the big club. When he does return to the Yankees, Berti is likely to fill a utility role that probably won't include everyday at-bats.
