The New York Yankees fired back at a Little League coach who complained that his team didn't get face time with Aaron Judge at the Little League Classic in Williamsport, Pennsylvania on Sunday.
Bob Laterza, coach of the Staten Island team, told silive.com that Judge didn't turn around and acknowledge his players during the Yankees' game against the Detroit Tigers on Sunday.
“How about turning around or wave to New York and the kids that think you’re a hero?" Laterza told the outlet. “They are the ones who pay your salary.”
Laterza also was angry that Judge didn't show up specifically to greet his New York-based team, despite other Yankees players, coaches and alumni getting with his players for one-on-one time.
“They were disappointed,” Laterza said. “Maybe he’ll want to make up for it and come and see them.”
The Yankees weren't too pleased with the coach's public outburst, releasing a blistering statement that pushed back on Laterza's claims:
“Win or lose, we intend to invite them to Yankee Stadium. However, it would have been much better if Staten Island’s coach called us to understand the facts before bitterly reacting in such a public fashion. Reaching out to us would have been the prudent way to act and would have set a fine example for his young players. Aaron Judge always acts with kindness and respect.”
“The coach could learn a lot from him.”
Laterza's team was eliminated from the Little League World Series with a loss on Tuesday.
