Lip service being paid to Fasano's idea
Saturday, August 19, 2006
BY ED PRICE
Star-Ledger Staff

BOSTON --When Charlie Finley owned the Oakland A's, he once offered players bonuses to grow mus taches. A few of the Yankees have done it on their own.

"Try to do a little team thing," Johnny Damon said yesterday.

Jason Giambi, Jaret Wright and Ron Villone are also in the group.

"A few of us were, 'Why not?' " Villone said. "Maybe pulling us together a little bit -- doing something different.

"We know everybody who was winning in the '70s had one."

The idea apparently stemmed from the acquisition of backup catcher Sal Fasano, who wore a Fu Manchu mustache while with the Philadelphia Phillies but trimmed it to above the lip in accordance with Yankees regulations.

"For a role player," he said, "I have a lot of pull."

Can they get Derek Jeter alter his famous visage with facial hair?

"No, we tried to," Villone said.

Asked about it, Jeter simply waved a finger in a "nuh-uh" ges ture.

What the hell is a matter with Jeter? He's a cancer like Nomar was.
