January 30th, 2009 | by shipsintheedge |TiVo alert: Joe Torre on Larry King
(”yankee years” photo ceremony of random house)
Joe Torre, New York, you’re live with Larry King, go, hello!
Torre, the former Yankees manager and current Dodgers skipper sits down on Larry King Live to discuss . . . whether Redpack is better than Contadina or Del Monte when it comes to using canned tomatos to make homemade sauce.
OK, we’re kidding about the topic. Unless you’ve been out of the country the past few days, is there anything else you think they’re going to talk about besides “The Yankee Years.”
It’s Torre’s new book, written by/with SI’s Tom Verducci, and the tell-all has turned New York into a talk-all. Everyone in the sports media world — and nearly every sports fan here — has been abuzz with whether or not Torre said this or said that about A-Rod, Jeter, Steinbrenner and the rest of the Yankees during his 1995-2007 tenure.
Torre gives his first full-length, no gag-order public interview with King on Friday at 9 p.m. EDT on CNN. Set your TiVos and DVRs. “The Yankee Years” will be in bookstores Tuesday, Feb. 3.
