Joba Heads Home to Dad

We send our best, our thoughts and prayers to Joba Chamberlain and his family today. Joba left the team yesterday to be by his dad Harlan's side in Nebraska. Joba's sister called the team during the 8th inning of yesterday's game with the news that their father was in critical condition.

Joe Girardi tried to console his reliever who was in tears upon receiving the news.
