Vice President Dick Cheney spent about 20 minutes in Manager Joe
Torre’s office and in the clubhouse shaking hands with players before
the Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox, 11-3, last night at Yankee Stadium.
    Cheney studied the photographs inside and outside Torre’s
office and asked Yogi Berra, the Hall of Fame catcher, why he was playing
the outfield in one picture. Cheney started watching the game from the
private box of the Yankees’ principal owner, George Steinbrenner, switched
to a seat beside the Yankees’ dugout for a few innings, then returned to
Steinbrenner’s box.
….      During the singing of “God Bless America”
in the seventh inning, an image of Cheney was shown on the scoreboard.
It was greeted with booing, so the Yankees quickly removed the image.
