    THE POPE AND ME AT YANKEE STADIUM My Life as the Beer Man & Stand-Up Comic THE POPE AND ME AT YANKEE STADIUM My Life As The Beer Man & Stand-Up Comic By Steve Lazarus as told to Sandy Miles By Steve Lazarus as told to Sanford Miles “It’ll leave you laughing in the aisles!” -- Phil Mushnick, New York Post 1 Like sands through the hourglass, these are the days of our lives. I'm writing an unauthorized autobiography. - STEVEN WRIGHT 2 PREFACE OKAY FANS, LISTEN UP! Let me set the record straight right off the bat (no puns intended) and tell you the truth: I AM A LIAR. All comedians are. They say they’re single, when they’re really married. They say they’re Ivy League grads, when they barely made it out of grade school. They say they’ve bought a truckload of products from the Home Shopping Network but have never heard of the Popeil Pocket Fisherman. They enlighten you with the trials and tribulations of their first sexual encounter, though they happened to be alone at the time. This, however, is no fib: sorry Mr. Derek Jeter and Co., but I, alone, comprise the best double-play combination around: Yankee Stadium Beer Man by day, Stand-up Comedian by night. Yup, The Fickle Finger of Fate tapped me on the shoulder long before it did Rowan and Martin.

Flannery: Affairs of the Heart Articles AFFAIRS OF THE HEART* MICHAEL T. FLANNERY** Baseball will be linked forever with family. Baseball is reminis- cent of fathers and sons holding hands as they enter their first ballpark together, bonding as they crack open peanuts, reach for foul balls, and cheer for their hometown heroes. While the con- cept of "Yankee" baseball particularly epitomizes these ideals, it also conjures images of sex, scandal, Hollywood stars, and tragic downfalls. In the minds of many, Yankee heroes are gods. Ultimately, however, they are just mortal men. And mortal men do not escape the randomness of life's adversities. All of our Yankee heroes have confronted the same personal issues that almost all families face, including death, divorce, custody debates, estate squabbles, domes- tic controversies, and drug addictions. For Yankee players in partic- ular, it seems the list is all too familiar. In dealing with family issues, many of our Yankee heroes have responded poorly.

By (author) Pepitone, William A.; By (author) Pepitone, Joseph V. Joe Pepitone had it all. God given ability, leading man charisma, and an ego the size of Brooklyn. Yet throughout the course of his lifetime he threw away a potential Hall of Fame career, two marriages, and countless opportunities. Then one night, rock bottom hit him like a one hundred mile an hour fastball. the wrong place, the wrong car, and perhaps the last wrong turn of his life.

Along the way they will encounter the most serious threat to Joe's eternal existence. the greatest icon in the history of the game. A rivalry dating back sixty years has come full circle, and now each man has something to lose. in the battle for Joe Pepitone's soul. Joe Pepitone : biography.

  • List of New York's Baseball Sites
    LIST OF NEW YORK’S BASEBALL SITES Major League Stadiums and related sites The New York metropolitan area is the scene of some of the most legendary events and home of the greatest figures in baseball history. From the first recorded baseball game at Elysian Fields in 1846, New York has been the “Capitol of Baseball” for 171 years. New York’s baseball history is written in many places – legendary stadiums, distinctive hotels, ordinary homes. Some of these sites are well-marked and internationally- known – others are marked with small plaques, tiny reminders, or even nothing at all. But every one of these sites listed played a major role in the history of baseball, is worth a visit, and deserves to be known and remembered. Enjoy! 1. Yankee Stadium (161st Street and River Avenue, The Bronx) Accessible by the No. 4, D, and B trains from Manhattan. The new Yankee Stadium, opened in April 2009. Costing $2.3 billion, it stands one block north of the original, on the 24-acre former site of Macombs Dam Park, and incorporates reproductions of many features from the original Yankee Stadium across the street, including the frieze, the Indiana limestone exterior, hand-operated scoreboards, the section numbering, and the unusually-shaped outfield dimensions. New features include a museum of Yankee history that displays Thurman Munson’s locker, a Great Hall on 161st Street, and an accessible Monument Park. Home plate was brought from the original Stadium, and Yankee relief pitcher and future Hall of Famer requested that the team reposition the home bullpen and provide it with a door to link it with Monument Park.
