A-ROD posted a group photo in a personal community and wrote: "I can't believe it's been 13 years without taking home a title, when we wore blue stripes (Yankees)." Thomson and Ron 2009 Both are members of the Yankees coaching staff, and A-ROD is one of the main hitters. Now both coaches are wearing Phillies jerseys, and A-ROD is wearing a suit to participate in sports TV shows.
The opponent the Yankees defeated in the World Series happened to be a Philadelphian. At that time, the Yankees head coach was Joe Girardi. Thomson and Ron served as assistant coaches. The two also served as Girardi's assistants this year. Lardy was fired in June and missed the photo. The post by
attracted more than 10,000 likes and comments including, "Good times," "This is why Phillies are so successful," and "Please be the general manager of the Yankees."
