Former Kansas City manager Tony Pena was hired by the New York Yankees (http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/teams/nyy/) on Thursday as their first base coach.

Pena was hired as Royals manager in May 2002 and was voted AL Manager of the Year in 2003 after leading the team to an 83-79 record, its first winning season since 1994. He quit May 10 after an 8-25 start that left his overall record with Kansas City at 198-285.

With what he did with the Royals, I'm glad to see him back in coaching.

Wonder if Steinbrenner will tell him to keep away from his next door neighbor's wife as a condition of employment.....

Every man should keep away from every other man's wife. That's not cool, man.

True. But that was one of the problems in KC. Apparently, ol' Tony didn't get the memo there.

Just so he can do all his catching squats while at 1st and I'll be entertained.

He's already the best first-base coach in New York.
