The old adage that the ball will always find you when playing a new position came into play immediately Friday night for Yankees rookie Oswaldo Cabrera.

Cabrera, who was called up Wednesday from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, had started the previous two games at third base and shortstop, respectively. He had collected his first two major-league hits in Thursday’s 9-2 loss to Toronto.

Cabrera had appeared in four games in the outfield, three in right, this season in the minors, but Aaron Boone already has been impressed by the 23-year-old Venezuelan’s defensive versatility. “That’s who he’s been. Obviously he hasn’t played a ton of outfield games, just a handful of games down there in the minor leagues. But he’s done a lot of work out there,” Boone said before Friday’s game. “I think one of his strengths as a player is just his maturity and his clock and way about him. That’s always been one of his calling cards.

“That’s not to cheapen his skillset, because I think you see the way he moves around the infield and picks up a ground ball. He can really impact the ball, too. He’s turning himself into a really good player and I think he’s going to be a good player in this league for a long time. But the intangible things are really special with him.”
