Manny Ramirez sparks interest wearing Yankees cap amid coaching pursuits
Former Boston Red Sox star Manny Ramirez has drawn attention after appearing in a batting-cage video wearing a New York Yankees cap. The footage has circulated on social media amid reports that the 54-year-old former outfielder is pursuing opportunities to work as a hitting coach in Major League Baseball.
While the appearance of the Yankees insignia is notable given Ramirez’s history of playing a central role in the Red Sox-Yankees rivalry—including helping Boston win the 2004 World Series—the video does not confirm any official contact, interview, or pending hiring by the Yankees organization. Ramirez’s agent has previously indicated his interest in coaching roles within the league.
