Virginia Tech vs. The Bronx Bombers
March 19, 2008Yesterday the Virginia Tech Hokies took on the New York Yankees and lost 11-0. The score doesn't matter, but who really knew that the game was played?
I sure didn't and I would have liked to have watched. I found out when I watched ESPN News late yesterday. It was a nice, emotional story about a charity baseball game. It was a little short considering the seriousness of the murders that occurred last year.
Here's a link to the story on our website - http://timesrecordnews.com/news/2008/mar/19/emotional-day-virginia-tech-and-yankees/
The Yankees are connected to the Virginia Tech school after George Steinbrenner donated $1 million to the campus to use for grief counseling after the tragedy .
A-Rod and Jeter were humble during their interviews and their words were heart felt.
I especially liked what Jeter had to say. A-Rod appears to be a PR robot, so I don't really know how to judge his words.
Above is some footage taken by one of the people in the stands. The video kind of says it all.
Visit the Yankees website and ESPN.com to view more video.
