Booing the Yankees on the day of Steinbrenner's death: Classless

Way to go, L.A.

To be fair, I doubt a lot of people know about it. A lot of them just woke up and left for the stadium.

Edit: they cheered Jeter when they had a recording of Bob Sheppard announce his AB, after informing the crowd of his passing.

Rest in Peace

Bummer
I loved that he made baseball more interesting on one hand, and on the other I hated that he could have off-seasons like 2008 where he bought everything.
I really hope the one nutcase son he has (Hank?) takes over from the steady one, that would be entertaining.

There were clear boos mixed in there. You could tell they were conflicted. I still find it hard to believe, in this age of information & technology, that the majority of the crowd was unaware of the Boss's passing.

Edit: That was still different. The announcer basically said, "Now we're going to play a clip of an announcer who just died." Even the most soulless of people wouldn't boo that (although a few still managed).

RIP George and thank you.

So your saying that because George passed away then Yankee players should be applauded? Sorry....RIP George...but I still hate your Yankees.

Nope. Just asking to hold off the boos for one day. That's it.
