Posey Returns to Lineup

San Francisco C Buster Posey will make his first start in San Francisco in this afternoon's Home Opener since going on the disabled list last May.  The game against Pittsburgh has already sold out.  Posey is currently suffering from shingles but returned to the lineup yesterday in Colorado.

Posey was cheered loudly in a home exhibition game last week against Oakland and should expect louder cheers in his first regular season game back at AT&T Park.  He won the 2010 National League Rookie of the Year Award before suffering three torn ligaments and a broken bone in his left ankle and left leg, respectively, after a home plate collision last year.
