Yankees President Randy Levine Donates $2,500 to Scott Brown’s Re-Election Campaign

Are the Yankees just following up on a business deal from nearly 100 years ago?

It certainly seems that way, as Yankees president Randy Levine donated the maximum $2,500 to Mass. Sen. Scott Brown's re-election campaign last month, according to the Boston Herald.

One can understand Levine supporting Brown's politics, but the thought of him helping to fund Brown's ads championing his Red Sox support is strange to say the least.

"We're happy to accept Randy Levine's donation," Brown campaign spokesman Colin Reed said, according to the Boston Herald. "The way Scott Brown looks at it is, this is their way of paying us back for Babe Ruth."

Yeah, that must be it.
