State Troopers Assigned to Yankee Dugout Asked for Autographs During the Ninth Inning
By Tim Ryan
When asked if something similar to this had happened before, Jeter responded with “what do you think?” I’m guessing that’s a yes considering he’s basically the face of baseball, though it’s doubtful too many have had the nerve to pull off such a pathetic stunt during the ninth inning. It’s just too bad the New York media shrivels up like Costanza when in the Captain’s presence, because he should’ve also been asked if anyone walked away with signed balls.
The Yankees can surely expect a new dynamic duo stationed in the dugout for Game 2 tonight at Camden Yards. Going for the Yanks will be Andy Pettitte. For the O’s it’ll be Wei-Yin Chen, who served up 13 home runs over his final 10 starts of the season.
