TAMPA — I’m anxious in regards to the Yankees. They lastly eliminate that half-century-old, no-sense no-beards rule, and Aaron Boone tells us, “It’s not a decision made lightly, obviously.”
He’s not mendacity about that. However after all, it is a determination that ought to have been made frivolously as a result of it at all times was a non-serious rule that no Yankees participant was recognized to assist.
Boone, who stated he agreed with the choice (as apparently did anybody else discovered Friday), added that discussions in regards to the rule have been occurring a really very long time. He wasn’t mendacity about that, both. For some motive, they wished to inform us how a lot work they put into one thing that must be apparent.
“Debating and deliberating this topic is something I’ve been doing with members and staff … for years,” Yankees proprietor Hal Steinbrenner informed Yankees writers.
