New York Yankees players and employees will finally look Barbas, the team announced on Friday, adjusting a unique and unique toilet policy.
The manager general, Hal Steinbrenner, said he spoke with “a large number of previous and current Yankees” about the archaic government against the beards established by his late Father George Steinbrenner almost half a century ago.
While it is still being a final policy Eliminated, the youngest Steinbrenner made it clear that some beards will soon be allowed within the Yankees Club House.
“Ultimately, the final decision falls to me, and after a great consideration, we will amend our expectations to allow our players and uniformed personnel to have well -arranged beards in the future,” he said in a statement. “It is the appropriate time to go beyond the family comfort of our previous policy.”
The policy dates back to 1973 shortly after a group of investors, including George Steinbrenner, bought the franchise with CBS difficulties.
The man who later called “the boss” immediately attacked some of the most famous Yankees of that time: Spark Lyle, Thurman Munnson, Bobby Murcer, Fritz Peterson and Roy White, to clean neglect, jet chop and long hair .
The rule was finally modified to allow mustaches, but not beards. The scalp hair could not touch the necklaces.
During generations, the Yankees players, often reluctantly, fulfilled the rule that seemed not to have equivalent in baseball or any other professional sport.
When the Ace of the Yankees Gerrit Cole signed a Bronx contract of nine years and $ 324 million in the winter of 2019-20, knew that a price of that agreement included losing the beard.
“I have not shaved about 10 years, but do you know what? That’s right, ”Cole said at that time. “That’s how it is. If you are a Yankee, you shave. That is what happens. “
