I’ve given props to Alex Belth of Bronx Banter before. His blog was an inspiration for this one.
Check out the series of stories he is doing on Ray Negron. One of the cast of characters around the Yankees, Negron started out as a bat boy and is now an advisor to George Steinbrenner. He’s made a career of befriending the right people.
Alex is a terrific writer and this is a real behind-the-scenes tale. So check it out.

That was a great read, thanks Pete. I should be sleeping though, got school tomorrow, lol.
Wow! Great article on Negron, can’t wait for Part 3. Thanks for the tip, Pete.
I know Ray Negron personally, and he is really a great great guy. My dad does some work with him and every time I see him he couldn’t be any kinder. This was a great read and a true testament to who he s

Just got finished reading part 1. Wow is all I can say. Very interesting story! Funny how punishment was to be a bat boy. I think many kids would hardly consider that punishment. Heck even adults would love to do that.
Am I missing something why don’t I see part 2.
part 3 is now posted

Part 2 is the link Pete setup last night, Part 3 was just linked today. AMS223 posted Part 1 this morning. It’s confusing but it’s all there.
I clicked both in Pete’s post, one is for part 3 the other part 1. Can someone please link it in the comments section.
I just spent a good portion of my lunch reading part 2 and part 3. All I can say is wow!! I can’t wait to read part 4 tomorrow. Great story so far.
