After taking, Burns' address book, Homer called the New York Yankees and told them how to bunt.[3]

Joe Torre and Joe DiMaggio in their New York Yankees uniforms were seen in a Jock Center commercial.[4]

Jock Squawk once called Lou Gehrig a crybaby.[5]

King Kong once wore a New York Yankees hat, posing for photos on top of the Empire State Building.[6]

In the 1943 World Series Tommy Henrich hit a ball to Joe LaBoot but LaBoot missed the catch.[7]

Bart once used Denis Leary's cell phone to order a New York Yankees hat and Derek Jeter jersey, much to Leary's annoyance, as he is a big Boston Red Sox fan.[8]

Homer once admitted "America is the New York Yankees of countries. Powerful and respected until the year 2000".[9]

Marge once said "Do the Yankees hoard pennants?" to Lisa, after Lisa questioned her recent hoarding.[10]

Lisa also said "You know, symbols can often rile people up - the swastika, the New York Yankees logo".[11]
