Yankees To Sign Billy Crystal?
[quote]The New York Yankees will sign actor and comedian Billy Crystal to a one-day contract.
With the approval of MLB commissioner Bud Selig, the Yankees announced that Crystal will sign the contract and work out with the team at Legends Field on Wednesday, before playing in Thursday’s Grapefruit League game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.[/quote]
Which is a bigger joke? Billy with the Yankees or Jordan with the White Sox?
[quote]Billy wore uniform number 60 one day before his 60th birthday. On March 13, in a spring training game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Crystal led off as the designated hitter. He managed to make contact, fouling a fastball up the first base line, but was eventually struck out by Pirates pitcher Paul Maholm on 6 pitches and was later replaced in the batting order by Johnny Damon.[/quote]
