Note to Melky - Field the ball first, THEN acknowledge the Bleacher Creatures

Embarrassing moment for Melky Cabrera to start off the game tonight. Check out the video below:

For those of you who don't know, the "Bleacher Creatures" chant the name of every Yankee at the beginning of each game at Yankee Stadium. Typically, if there is a play going on, the player will take care of business, and then tip his cap to the fans. Not the case with Melky Cabrera, obviously.

If A-Rod had done that, the Bleacher Creatures would refuse to chant his name ever again.

Talk about it in the NYYSI Forums!
