George Steinbrenner spends time at his office
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — George Steinbrenner returned to his office at the Yankees'
spring training complex for the first time since New York won the World Series
last week.
The 79-year-old owner spent more than three hours with family members and team
officials looking back at the franchise's 27th title and discussing plans for
the upcoming season. Also attending were son Hal Steinbrenner, who succeeded his
father as managing general partner; daughters Jennifer Steinbrenner Swindal and
Jessica Steinbrenner; and special assistant Tino Martinez.
Steinbrenner uses a wheelchair because of bad knees and has made few public
appearances since turning over control of the team to Hal last November.
Steinbrenner attended the first two games of the World Series but watched the
Game 6 clincher from his home in Tampa.
He really is becoming the good will ambassador for the Yankees. Lighting up the
Empire State Bldg, thesignings last year, and now the one yesterday. I'm so
glad the yankee front office finally realizes what a gem they have in Tino.
I only wish there was more coverage (and prior announcements) of events like
this.
Scrumptious, as always!!!
