Hudson Valley Renegades News Release


Fishkill, NY --- Mike Veeck, president of the Hudson Valley Renegades, will be appearing on ESPN this Thursday, April 8th from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. on the program "Break Up The Bombers: The Yankees On Trial."

Veeck is scheduled to "testify" along with Yankees fan/actor Billy Crystal; former Yankees pitcher and "Ball Four" author Jim Bouton; and Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane. The ESPN program will be a mock trial, which will look at whether a system that allows the Yankees to outspend their opponents is good for baseball.

Court TV's Catherine Crier will preside over the three-hour trial before a live audience in a New Jersey courtroom. Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz will serve as the prosecutor, while Bruce Cutler, who represented John Gotti in three federal trials, will defend the Yankees.
