E19: From Graffiti to Greatness: "Batboy" Ray Negron's Bronx Tale

  • Résumé

  • In this episode of The Erik Sherman Show, Erik interviews Ray Negron, who has one of baseball's most endearing stories. As a kid caught spraying graffiti outside Yankee Stadium in 1973, Negron was given a second chance by George Steinbrenner and made a Yankee bat boy. Mentored by icons like Reggie Jackson, Billy Martin, and Thurman Munson, Negron went from the streets of the Bronx to becoming a pro baseball prospect drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Now a prolific children's book author and film producer who has worked with Hollywood legends, Negron serves as the Community Affairs Advisor for the New York Yankees, ensuring veteran players and rookies promote the club’s tradition of pride and inspiration by visiting sick kids and supporting inner-city youth.
