Uribe, Giants top Athletics

Published Jun. 14, 2009 6:58 a.m. ET

Juan Uribe won't remember this game for his go-ahead RBI single in the seventh inning for the surging San Francisco Giants. His best moment Saturday night was a bit more timeless.

The infielder stood among several of the Giants' greats before the first pitch when he escorted his aunt onto the field for a reunion of San Francisco's 1989 World Series team — which included Jose Uribe, his late, beloved uncle.

"I felt like I would cry," said Uribe, whose uncle died in a car accident in December 2006. "I'm just glad we could win."
