The Evil Empire has its very own Doctor Evil.
Greg Bird can assume the title, the proud owner of his very own Sphynx cat — a breed without hair, popularized by Mr. Bigglesworth in the “Austin Powers” movies.
The Yankees first baseman’s pet is called Mr. Delicious — Lish for short — and is descended from the feline Doctor Evil would menacingly stroke in the comedies.
Lish arrived last summer, Bird said in a video produced by Yes Network, apparently in time to help him recover after shoulder surgery cut short his 2016 season before it began.
