In less than an inning, the New York Yankees appeared to be bored.
Hosting the Athletics for a three-game set at Yankee Stadium, New York's dugout was seen playing what appeared to be a game with ... chewed-up gum.
Take a look for yourself ...
Yankees players appeared as if they were tossing their used gum at a sprinkler head in the grass. Why? That's a fantastic question.
It's hard not to feel bad for the poor grounds crew worker who will have to pick all that up at some point. Or even a player who tracks a fly ball into foul territory.
While the Yankees are focused on who amongst them is the best thrower of gum, the A's are focused on winning a game against the best team in baseball. Or maybe this is why the Yankees are the best team in baseball? I don't know anymore.
