Billy Crystal batting at the NY Yankees Game in Tampa

Billy Crystal didn't do so bad at his first at bat with the Yankees today. He bounced a chopper past first baseman that landed several feet foul. Then he got ahead in the count 3-1, but missed a pair of 88 mph fastballs.

The 10,000+ fans at Legends Field gave Crystal a standing ovation, and he raised his hand to salute us. He sat at the fence line for the rest of the game as one of the boys. It was one of those cool Spring Training games with my dad that I'll always remember.

Here's a YouTube video I found from another fan in the stands. Cokebevis was on the visitors side between third and home.
