    An emotional Joba Chamberlain spoke with reporters for just less than 14 minutes on Tuesday, his first time since suffering a serious ankle injury while playing with his five-year-old son, Karter, last Thursday.

    The New York Yankees pitcher was asked to explain exactly what happened at the children's play facility they were at, where the entire floor is made up of trampolines.
