Todd Frazier was made to play for the Yankees. From the time he was 12 years old.
That’s when The Post took a leap of faith and sent me to Connecticut to cover a Little League Regional championship game featuring Toms River East American Little League. If the kids from Jersey won that game they would be going on to Williamsport.
This was 1998 when the Core Four Yankees were at their best. Back then the Little League World Series was not the huge event that it soon became on ESPN, in large part, thanks to Todd Frazier.
