Back to 1995

Song Yang enjoyed the treatment of the Yankees' arch-enemy Boston Red Sox in advance. The fans of the Yankees did not want Song Yang, the new big money lord, to immediately take over the Yankees.

In the past few years in the Steinbrenner family era, the Yankees have achieved good or bad results, but under the leadership of head coach Joe Torre, they have begun to charge towards a new baseball dynasty. At this juncture, Song Yang wants to buy The Yankees, of course, added many variables.

Everyone understands the benefits of ushering in a super big sponsor for a team and club, but at the same time, the risk factor is also multiplied. If the big sponsor does not want to win the championship, but to empty out What about the team.

Although fans of the New York Yankees also understand that Song Yang should not do that kind of dishonest thing, look at the Italian Roma team that was acquired by Song Yang, how much money Song Yang spent on it, making Roma a Serie A or even The new galaxy battleship of the entire European football world.

This is true of the Roma teams, let alone the Yankees. Song Yang is a "genius" from the baseball world, but after all, there are some fans who don't want Song Yang to include the Yankees in their pockets and become Song Yang's favorite. Another loot in the showroom!

The VIP room in the arena today is basically full of seats. When they see Song Yang, no matter whether they are familiar or unfamiliar, when they face Song Yang, they always nod with a smile on their faces. Those fans can boo Song Yang, they But no, I even hope that I can have something to do with Song Yang through this.

After entering the arena, looking at the past, the huge stadium is already full of voices, the Mavericks, Pataki, Giuliani, and many celebrities in New York, including rumors, Bloomberg News who has ideas for the next New York mayor Boss Michael Bloomberg and others were present.

As for the celebrities in New York, not to mention, the camera swept across the VIP room and the front row seats. Basically, the people sitting there are all famous people, and many of them are wearing the iconic white pinstripes of the Yankees. T-shirts and Yankees baseball caps on their heads, there were all fans in Yankees uniforms, and some fans in Red Sox jerseys, but the number was too small.

When the old Steinbrenner, accompanied by Hank Steinbrenner and the general manager of the Yankees, was on the field, there was a tsunami of applause in the entire arena. The attitude towards Song Yang is completely different.

"It seems that our richest man seems to be a little unpopular at the home of the Yankees!"

The ESPN studio also teased Song Yang, who was also applauding, and Song Yang also applauded when the old Stanbury was present.

Hank Steinbrenner, who accompanied the old Steinbrenner into the arena, glanced in the direction of Song Yang. Song Yang nodded slightly to him, but Hank Steinbrenner did not Song Yang didn't care about the response.

After a hustle and bustle, it was the entrance ceremony of the Yankees and the Red Sox. The Yankees were attacking the dynasty, the coach had Joe Torre, and the players were a group of stars headed by the team captain Derek Jeter. Of course, Among them was the late bloomer baseball superstar Mariano Rivera.

When Li Weila entered the arena, Song Yang stood up deliberately and applauded for Li Weila. There are many rumors about Song Yang and Li Weila in the world, but this is the first time Song Yang has officially watched Li Weila. Contest.

After Song Yang got up, Li Weila also raised his hand to Song Yang. Although he had no contact with Song Yang, there were many rumors about Li Weila and Song Yang. Why is Li Weila Song Yang's favorite baseball? hand, if Song Yang hadn’t been injured that time, his goal would be to become the second Rivera. There are even more outrageous rumors. The reason why Song Yang wants to buy the Yankees is because Rivera is in the Yankees...

Whether these rumors are true or not is hard to say, but some rumors in the world have greatly increased Rivera's reputation. His agent also prevented Rivera from denying those rumors. After all, the four major sports leagues in America can get Mr. Richest Man How many players do you like?
Even, Rivera's agent wished that the rumors were true. If Song Yang were to buy the Yankees, then Rivera's worth would skyrocket!
At this moment, in the lounge of the Dome Stadium in Minnesota, where the ice and snow are far away, there is also a team belonging to the Major League Baseball League watching the game.

There is also a game today, which belongs to the game between the Minnesota Twins and the White Sox, but in front of the Yankees and Red Sox, their game has no cards at all, and there is no all-America broadcast treatment at all. The TV station is broadcasting it, but it is estimated that the fans are watching the battle between the Red Sox and the Yankees.

Watching the Yankees and Red Sox on TV, the deafening cheers and the crazy shouts of the commentators, and compared to the Twins, they even rented the arena and didn’t have their own home court at all. The players of the city team can only envy them.

Who doesn't want to play in a big city, no matter which league players are in the four major sports leagues, New York and Los Angeles are the places they want to go. After going there, it is equivalent to standing under the spotlight, with a lot of beauty Knives, advertising endorsements, etc., are all available at your fingertips. On the contrary, in Minnesota, a place that doesn't shit, reporters and media don't even bother to report. The entire state has a total of more than 500 million residents. There is a ghost news.

While the players of the Twin Cities were discussing, someone who was a substitute on the team was huddled in a corner of the locker room, afraid of being noticed.

Watching Song Yang on TV, Stanton sat in the corner with a sad expression on his face. He suddenly began to worry about his career.

After coming out of Devers School, Stanton went to the NCAA baseball team far away from Texas. In the first year or two of Song Yanggang's debut, if he opened a newspaper at random, it was he who "ruined" America. A rising baseball superstar has to report that Stanton's reputation is basically rotten. In many baseball clubs, there is a saying that you can't be too Stanton as a teammate...

After accumulating some experience on the NCAA baseball team, Stanton came to the icy Minnesota Twins for trial training and got a non-guaranteed basic salary contract.

As a bad team in major league baseball for ten thousand years, the ancestors have no honor at all, which is exactly the same. No player wants to stay in Minnesota at all. They want money but no money, fame but no fame, and grades but no grades, even if they are not good. It is easy to train a player, and when the contract expires, he will just run away.

But this kind of team is the first choice for small players like Stanton. They can't get into big teams, and they can only have a chance in small teams. It's better to go to work for the car wash, or go to the factory to screw screws and the like.

And the small team has no choice but to choose Stanton and the others. If you are lucky and miss one or two talented players, you will make a lot of money. Although the probability is very low, hundreds of thousands a year The expenditure of US dollars is nothing to the team.

At this time, the ESPN commentary seat was still gossiping about the rumors between Song Yang and Rivera. The captain of the Twin Cities suddenly turned to Stanton and asked, "That rookie, you are also from Houston, right?"

When asked suddenly, Stanton's heart tightened. Whether it was in the NCAA team or here, Stanton never mentioned anything related to Houston. If anyone knew, it was the one he gave Song Yang. Think about it, it is estimated that there are not a few people who take Stanton to ask Song Yang for credit.

"Bruno Song, are those rumors with Rivera true?"

Hearing that he was asking this question, Stanton finally breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was also vague. How could he know these things? In other words, after Devers School, Stanton saw the news of Song Yang again, and it was in the major media. above.

"It should be true!"

Stanton said vaguely that he seemed to have "heard" Rivera's name from Song Yang when he was on the Devers school baseball team.

"I don't know, if Bruno Song buys the Yankees, what will happen when we play against the Yankees!"

The players of the Twin Cities couldn't help discussing that Song Yang took over the Yankees, and the blessing of the super sponsor will make the Yankees even richer and stronger, and they will dig out other star players to improve their strength. Ruthless, it's easier to abuse food, who wants to be another background board for the Yankees.

Stanton was even more frowning. He was afraid that Song Yang would still be thinking about that, and that Stanton's career would probably come to an end early.
