Borough President Diaz & New York Yankees Host Second Annual 'Borough President's Cup' Little League Championship


    Tuesday, September 25, Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. and the New York Yankees co-hosted the second annual “Borough President’s Cup” Little League Championship. The game featured a match-up between the Little League Raiders and the Bronx Bombers Little League, who competed for the title in a game at Yankee Stadium. 

     Below are a few of the photos of the game between the Raiders and Bombers. Again this year there were many different answers to the question "Who is your favorite Yankee player",  The favorites were Arod, Jeter, Granderson, CC, and Swisher, with one answer from a Met fan being Jose Reyes who was traded to the Phillie's.

I just noticed that today MTA Chairman Joe Lhota ripped into MTA board member Charles Moerdler, calling him a liar and slamming his complaint as "blubbering."
