MLB manager gets private tour of NYC comedy club

Want an example of how Marlins interim manager Edwin Rodriguez has enjoyed himself? When the Marlins came to New York a couple of weeks ago, Rodriguez visited the famous Friars’ Club in Manhattan , thanks to his representative, Burton Rocks (a club member). “I had read a lot about the club, so it was a great chance for me to go there,” Rodriguez said. ” . . . They have a Billy Crystal Room, where we have all of these photos. I’ve always been a big fan of Billy Crystal . I didn’t have a chance to meet him, but being there was great.” Crystal is a huge Yankees fan, Newsday pointed out, to which Rodriguez replied, “Nobody’s perfect.” Yes, he was joking; Rodriguez made his major-league debut as a Yankee in 1982. — Newsday
