Watch: Aaron Judge, Marcus Stroman, Ben Rice & other Yankees stars reveal their perfect dinner partner
New York Yankees captain, Aaron Judge, pitching ace, Marcus Stroman, catcher/1B Ben Rice and other Bombers stars are gearing up for Opening Day of the new baseball season as the Yanks take on the Milwaukee Brewers in a three-game series at home in Yankee Stadium, starting Thursday.
The players had a decent outing during preseason games in Spring Training and besides playing baseball, they also had some on-field fun with a quirky question-answer session. In the latest video shared by the club on X/Twitter, the Yankees ballplayers were asked to reveal their perfect dinner partner from the past or present.
Some of the responses were as follows:
"If I go to dinner, I would say Jackie Robinson," said Aaron Judge.
"Cristiano Ronaldo," said Oswald Peraza.
"I'm gonna go with, the Buddha," said Ben Rice.
"Lebron James," said Oswaldo Cabrera.
"Maybe Wayne Dyer," said Marcus Stroman.
Some additional responses were as follows:
"I don't know, Benjamin Franklin. And then, ask him how he figured out conductivity and electricity. I think that would be an interesting conversation," said Spencer Jones.
"I'm gonna throw a crazy one, like Virgil Abloh," said Clarke Schmidt.
"Derek Jeter," said Andrew Velazquez.
"George Steinbrenner," said Anthony Volpe.
"Alexander the Great. Great leader. So, pick his brain," said Will Warren.
