Jeter Wanted to Be Dorothy

The Yankees got creative with their rookie hazing this year, forcing their rookies to dress up as characters from the Wizard of Oz.

Joba Chamberlain is dressed as the Lion, Ian Kennedy as Dorothy, Shelley Duncan as the Scarecrow and Phil Hughes as the Tin Man.


Joba Chamberlain's wheelchair bound father, Harlan, must have been crying again after seeing his son like this.


Chase Wright, the good witch.


Ian Kennedy definitely got the worst of this. I wonder which veteran he pissed off. But his Dorothy costume is very authentic right down to his Toto and his ruby red slippers and shopping bag from the Apple store.
