    Poor Ramiro Pena.

    Yankees Baseball Rookies

    Via the AP: New York Yankees rookie players and support personnel dressed as Batman characters pose for a photo with Yankees manager Joe Girardi, third from left,as they prepare to board buses in Seattle, Sunday, Sept. 20, 2009, following a baseball game against the Seattle Mariners. From left are radar gun operator Brett Weber as the Joker, video coordinator Anthony Flynn as Robin, rookie pitcher Mark Melancon as Batman, Yankees rookie shortstop Ramiro Pena as Catwoman, rookie pitcher Michael Dunn as the Riddler, and massage therapist Lew Potter as the Penguin. The team were headed out of Seattle for a series of games against the Los Angeles Angels and the costumes were part of the Yankees’ annual rookie hazing.

      Not as ridiculous or as gay or humiliating as the Wizard of Oz stuff that Joba and Kennedy were forced to wear!

      the more embarrassing the costume, it seems means the more serious the team thinks you have of sticking.

      Interesting, I don’t remember if non-players are or were usually involved in the “hazing.”

      @ Raf:
      not that I recall. At the least, they were never pictured before.

      As Kepner wrote today, shouldn’t they have forced Joba to wear the Riddler outfit?
