However, that uncertainty hasn't affected his production recently as he's hit safely in seven of his past eight games, recording three homers and seven RBI in that span. He had just two home runs total in 116 at-bats between Arizona and Atlanta last year.

"I think about it a little bit," Overbay told the New York Post. "I know the situation. I'm just enjoying my time while I'm here and when he comes back, hopefully we can coexist. It'll work itself out."

The veteran first baseman took starter Bartolo Colon deep for his fifth homer of the season in the fifth inning. It was a solo shot. Overbay added a double and has 13 RBI. 

The 36-year-old Overbay has hit in six of his last seven games with two doubles, three homers and five RBI over that span. 

Overbay hit a solo homer off Brad Peacock in the eighth inning and was 1 for 4. He has homers in two of his last three games. He has hit in four straight and is 5 for 15 over that stretch with a triple, three runs scored and four RBI. 

Overbay homered in the seventh inning off starter R.A. Dickey. His two-run blast, the third HR of his season, gave the Yankees the lead for good at 3-2. Overbay finished the game 2 for 3 and is batting .240 for the Yankees. 

Overbay has gone 3 for 7 in his last two games with a triple, HR and three RBI.
