Yankee Staffer Charged with Battery

2003_9_costanzag.jpgThe traveling secretary of the Yankees got into a fight with a security guard at U.S. Cellular Field (apparently that's the Chicago White Sox's stadium) after the Yankees clinched the A.L. East title. David Szen, 51, was charged with misdemeanor battery; the Post says it was over whether or not a TV crew could film the Yankees celebration. Of course, Gothamist recalled that George Costanza was the Yankees' assistant to the traveling secretary and we are sure George would have run like a girl from the confrontation. Or he would have been the evil mastermind behind it, in order to become the traveling secretary.
