I'm a diehard Red Sox fan, but I have to give props to some individual Yankees from time to time. Bernie Williams, for instance. I watched him play in AA when the Yanks' farm team was in Albany, and I've always thought he was a class act. And Jorge Posada.

Posada's son has Craniosynostosis, which is a condition where the seams between the bones that make up the skull fuse prematurely. He's had several operations for the condition. Posada has established a foundation to help other families with children suffering from that condition, and he's written a children's book (available in English and Spanish) with all proceeds going to the foundation.

Hat tip to Crooks and Liars for spotting this.
