How Money Will Get You Too In Pinstripes..


Think that life isn't fair? Well, you're probably right. Case in point - Billy Crystal. The New York Yankees announced today that Crystal will play in an exhibition game this week, right as Crystal celebrates his 60th birthday. I'm turning in July, so I've decided that i want to be the starting pitcher in the All-Star Game. Why not? I'm pretty well known too..
The funny part is that Crystal, who produced the movie "61" about Mickey Mantle an Roger Maris, is always portraye as this huge lifelong Yankee fan. However, I have my doubts. In perhaps his most famous role in 'City Slickers' , what hat is he wearing? A METS hat !! Yeah, the Yankees were pretty suckass back in 1991, but hey, show some cajones, man !!
This isn't the first time a movie star has tried to play ball. Garth Brooks played spring training a few times, and he went like 0-100....
