Around the Empire: Yankees news - 9/30/15

Stories from Yogi's funeral, the Yankees active in inclusion efforts, Drew likely out for the season, and a note to the Berra family.

FOX Sports | AP: Yogi Berra's funeral was held in his home of Montclair, NJ yesterday morning, and it was a moving service that was attended by an amazing array of icons, including former rival Jackie Robinson's widow, Rachel. Joe Torre and Cardinal Timothy Dolan eulogized Yogi, and Torre lightened the mood by telling the attendees about how Yogi would always light up spring training when he arrived as an instructor. On road trips, he would apparently even walk into 7-Elevens dressed in full Yankee pinstripes with his number 8 to use the bathroom, baffling store attendants and visitors.
