What are the Yankees not drinking?

Once the Yankees reached the clubhouse, they grabbed bottles of Champagne and sprayed a lot more than they consumed…The Yankees emptied 300 bottles in about 20 minutes.

“We just got whatever this time,” the clubhouse manager Rob Cucuzza said of the choice of Champagne. “We’ll get better quality as we go along.”
