Yesterday in Belmar Municipal Court, an innocent Jersey Shore town sought justice against a man who spent the summer bedding their women and eating their bagels, simply because he made them believe that he was Yankee phenom pitcher Joba Chamberlain. 30-year-old Ryan Ward has been charged with "theft by deception" after he swindled free food out of the Belmar Bagel Cafe last summer. Ward opened a newspaper to the sports section and pointed at "his picture," while asking female workers, "Do you know who I am?" He then autographed the newspaper, which owner Don Weston considered framing. (Ward has since returned to the cafe and paid for his free bagels and coffee).

A Jersey Shore man is giving new meaning to the term "five-tool player" after spending the summer hooking up with as many as 100 women because of his resemblance to Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain. Ryan Ward tells the NY Post that after "numerous occasions of my shirt being ripped off," a friend encouraged him to "become (Joba) for the summer." However, Ward took his new found identity too far when cops had to arrest the 29-year-old Phillies fan after a two-week run of scamming free food and drinks from bartenders in Belmar and other Shore towns. The Yankee phenom says he would like to meet his doppleganger. Ward, currently unemployed and out on bail says, "I wouldn't mind becoming his celebrity impersonator."
