Bernie Williams would have to make the phone call

Joe Torre on WFAN with Mike Francesa and Chris Russo is asked about the zero batting average on the Yankee bench. Mike says he knows he's biased, but what the heck would it take to get #51 Bernie Williams back here? Joe says Bernie would need to play baseball somewhere before he could be any help to the Yankees. Joe said he spoke to him about 10 days ago at a Paul O'Neill fund-raiser, but offered no glimpse there could be a reunion. It sounds like Bernie would have to play in the minors somewhere first. Francesa closes the interview by saying:

• "WE'VE GOTTA GET #51 BACK ON THE TEAM."
