NEW YORK (AP) - So much for the curse. The New York Yankees have
ended a construction worker's attempt to jinx its new stadium with
a buried Boston Red Sox jersey.
Team officials watched today as construction workers removed the
jersey, with slugger David Ortiz' name on it, from 2 feet of
concrete in a service corridor of the stadium that's under
construction.
The team says a construction worker - who is a Red Sox fan -
recently buried the jersey there while on the job. Two supervisors
found the tattered shirt yesterday.
The Yankees plan to donate the jersey to charity, and may pursue
a lawsuit against the construction worker.
