03/10: Yankees Pay for Bronx Fire Victims' Funerals
From
MLB.com:
The New York Yankees have voluntarily committed to paying the funeral costs for victims of a Bronx house fire that killed nine people Wednesday.
Eight children and one adult perished when fire engulfed a row house near Yankee Stadium late Wednesday. The fire was the deadliest in New York City in 17 years, apart from the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center.
As much as all of the winning, things like this make me proud to be a Yankees fan.
