Rising of the Sons

The NY Post is reporting today that due to declining health George Steinbrenner has turned over control of the Yankees to sons Hal and Hank.

"George has taken on a role like the chairman of a major corporation," said team president Randy Levine. "He's been saying for years he's wanted to get his sons involved in the family business. Both of them have stepped up and are taking on the day-to-day duties of what's required to run the Yankees."

"There's always been a succession - and that's myself and my brother," Hank told The Post in an exclusive interview.

According to Hank Steinbrenner, he and Hal will have the final baseball decisions, but Hank will be concentrating more on the team while Hal handles the Stadium issues.
