Yankees Call Up Veteran Right-Hander Justin Topa to Bullpen

The New York Yankees have promoted veteran right-hander Justin Topa to the major league roster to bolster their relief corps ahead of their series against the Astros. A Binghamton native and LIU Brooklyn product, Topa brings experience from 172 major league appearances over seven seasons with the Brewers, Mariners, and Twins. The move resulted in a corresponding roster adjustment that saw Brendan Beck optioned to the minor leagues.
