Yanks Rookies Do "Wizard of Oz"

New York Yankees' Joba Chamberlain is dressed as the Lion, Ian Kennedy as Dorothy, Shelley Duncan as the Scarecrow and Phil Hughes as the Tin Man from "The Wizard of Oz" as they leave Yankee Stadium after Monday's game. The rookies had to dress in costumes as part of a hazing ritual before they left for a road trip.
