BY SCOTT LAUBERNEW YORK -- Since FOX showed the wrong guy on screen, here's a picture of the real John Mayberry Sr., who is at Yankee Stadium today with his wife and must be very proud of his son. (The elder Mayberry, by the way, hit 255 career homers in the majors. Not too shabby.) There's some symmetry here. John Sr.'s last major-league homer was a three-run shot at original Yankee Stadium on Aug. 8, 1982. Naturally, John Jr.'s first homer was a three-run shot at new Yankee Stadium. Pretty cool.
Still not sure who the guy in the Panama jersey was, but I'll bet he's proud of his children, too.
