Sorry, Boston … Johnny Damon‘s making it 100% clear — he bleeds pinstripes now.
“New York’s my team,” Johnny tells TMZ Sports. “The Yankees, that’s who I want to win.”
Damon says he still does have at least SOME love in his heart for the Sox — a team he broke a curse with and won a World Series within 2004.
But, when it comes to Boston-N.Y. in the ALDS — he’s got his Yanks cap firmly on.
“I think [the Yankees] upset them,” Damon says.
So, why’s Johnny — who played 4 seasons in N.Y. after his 4 seasons in Boston — picking sides??
Johnny sorta explains — when he left Boston, contract talks created some drama. But, with the Yanks, it’s been nothing but good vibes from them since retirement.
Plus … it doesn’t hurt that he spends a lot of time in N.Y. these days.
As for the actual X’s and O’s on the diamond … ya gotta hear why he thinks the Yankees will win DESPITE the Red Sox being the better team.
