Billy Bean


Billy Crystal to don Yankees pinstripes
news.yahoo.com — Billy Crystal will get to "look mahvelous" in pinstripes. The actor will sign a one-day, minor league contract with the New York Yankees and play in Thursday's exhibition game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Who hates clowns? I do. If I was fortunate enough to be pitching for the Pirates on Thursday, I would avail myself of the chance to gain a rep as a brutal, humorless, headhunting thug, and I would bean the living bejesus out of that tourist.

*There was a good photo of Jimmy Rollins getting beaned in the face, but I like Jimmy Rollins a lot, and so I went with Sosa.
