Around the Empire - Yankees news: 8/15/22

ESPN | Joon Lee: When Johnny Damon and Jacoby Ellsbury returned to Fenway Park after signing with the New York Yankees as free agents, they were met, perhaps unsurprisingly, with boos. Upon his return to Boston, however, Andrew Benintendi was met not with jeers, but with cheers — perhaps in part because the Yankees left fielder did not willingly sign as a free agent with the team, but was acquired in a midseason trade. In the process, the 2018 World Series champion (blegh) became one of the few Yankees to receive a warm welcome in Fenway.
