Donald Trump picked up a surprise Yankees endorsement Tuesday night in Jupiter, Fla.
The Republican front-runner gave a shoutout to Paul O’Neill, the former Yankees
outfielder and four-time World Series champion in pinstripes — after Trump’s victories in the Michigan and Mississippi primaries on Tuesday night.
O’Neill was in the audience for Trump’s victorious press conference when Trump spotted him.
“I love you,” the candidate said to O’Neill after learning he had the former Yankees endorsement.
This must not have been good news for rival candidate John Kasich, who probably would have liked his fellow Ohioan’s support.
