Yanks unearth Sox jersey from new park

BOSTON -- Hours before the Yankees and Red Sox prepared to face off again at Fenway Park on Sunday, the rivalry was alive and well in the Bronx, where jackhammers rocked a concrete corridor at the future Yankee Stadium site in search of a prankster's hidden David Ortiz jersey.
For those who find such superstition credible and feared a Yankees curse, fear not. The Bombers yanked the Red Sox jersey out of the new ballpark's structure in a photo opportunity ceremony on Sunday afternoon, with construction workers removing the illicit article.

Yankees team president Randy Levine and chief operating officer Lonn Trost were present on Sunday at the site, as workers removed the jersey from two feet of concrete in a service corridor. The jersey, plucked from a two-by-three foot hole, was a home white Red Sox article bearing designated hitter Ortiz's name and number.

The New York Post reported that the culprit was Gino Castignoli, a 46-year-old Bronx resident and Red Sox fan. Castignoli told the newspaper that he buried the jersey at the construction site last summer while working at the stadium.

The Yankees originally denied the story after their records indicated that the jersey could not have been buried near the Yankees' future clubhouse, as an original report on Friday indicated. Two workers told a construction manager that they remembered Castignoli, and they led the supervisor to a service corridor near the site of the planned Legends Club restaurant -- behind home plate and toward the third-base side.

According to the newspaper, workers dug for five hours on Saturday with jackhammers, finding the jersey at 3:25 p.m. ET and notifying Yankees officials.

The Yankees plan to donate the jersey to charity, and they may pursue a lawsuit against the construction worker, according to The Associated Press.

Perhaps Castignoli selected the wrong Red Sox star to encapsulate at the Yankee Stadium site. Ortiz went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Boston's 4-3 victory over New York on Saturday, lowering his batting average to a dismal .070 after 12 games.

The NFL Network said Friday it was looking for a new play-by-play announcer to work with Cris Collinsworth on the network’s Thursday and Saturday night games.

“I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to call NFL Network games the past two years, which was a new experience for me,” Gumbel said in a statement. “But we’ve agreed that we’d all be better served going in different directions.”

Great News! Bryant Gumbel has had Many well documented errors on air.

Report: Worker tries to jinx Yanks with buried Red Sox shirt

A Worker tried to plant a curse on the Yankees and New Yankee Stadium.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK - Say it ain’t so, George!

A construction worker on a concrete crew at the new Yankee Stadium secretly buried a Red Sox T-shirt under the future visiting clubhouse in an effort to jinx the Yankees, the New York Post reported Friday.

The paper cited two construction workers it did not identify, saying they were not authorized to speak with the media. One of the workers said the T-shirt was poured in a slab in the visitor’s clubhouse.

“It sounds like a tall tale, and it would take more than a Red Sox T-shirt to put a curse on the Yankees,” team spokesman Howard Rubenstein was quoted as saying.

The Yankees move to the new ballpark in 2009.

My Take:
Yankees-Red Sox is in the air! Can You Feel It? The Greatest Rivalry in Sports is about to extend into the next generation. If the story is true, nice job by the construction workers! They did they're part to keep the Yankees-Red Sox fire burning!

BTW, The Yankees beat Boston 4-1 Friday. The only offense for Boston coming from a J.D. Drew Solo Homerun.

On Saturday, Fox will have Yankees-Red Sox from Fenway Park! Mike Mussina is pitching for the Yankees, opposed by Fireballer Josh Beckett. I expect this game to come down to the bullpen, as both starters could be bailed out by their team's potent offense as long as the starters pitch well in the game.

Watch Yankees-Red Sox Saturday on Fox and Sunday Night On ESPN!
