The Spring Training field that the New York Yankees called Legends Field, will now be called Steinbrenner Field.  The Tampa City Council has already agreed to the name change for the old leader of the Yankees.

We all know that George isn’t running the team anymore and that his son Hank the team’s senior vice president, took over running baseball operations last fall.  This move clearly is appreciation for what George Steinbrenner and the Yankees did down in Tampa during spring training.
