April 09, 2003OPENING DAY FANTASYApril 8, 2053 The New York Yankees opened their season with a 7-3 win over the Damascus Pitas. The winning runs scored on a grand slam by the Yankees' Ahmed Chalabi, Jr., their newly signed Iraqi left fielder. Chalabi, speaking through an interpreter, said that baseball was a favorite Iraqi sport ever since American troops liberated the country on VI (Victory in Iraq) day, April 9, 2003. |
I was wondering Steinbrenner would get off his duff and pay this kid. Just a week ago the papers had him going to Boston.
