Rivera at Hot Stove benefit for Yankee radio producer Carlos Silva

.
2/4/13, "Yankees family comes together for Carlos Silva," YES Network, DiPietro, "Rivera, Teixeira among Bombers at radio producer's benefit."

"Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman, manager Joe Girardi, first baseman Mark Teixeira and closer Mariano Rivera joined 150 of their closest fans for a Hot Stove Q&A session at the Hard Rock Café in Times Square on Monday night, all to support a member of the pinstripe family.

The event was held to benefit Yankees radio producer and web contributor Carlos Silva, who is battling esophageal and stomach cancer. Silva has been a big part of the Yankees family for nearly a quarter-century, currently with WCBS radio as the Yankees broadcast producer and engineer and also as a Spanish-language contributor to YESNetwork.com.

Having been around the team for so long, Silva has become close with many past and present Yankees, including Rivera, who jumped at the chance to be part of the benefit."...(Photo, Rivera greets fan who came out to support Carlos Silva, photo Newhart)
