Question to Sportswriters...

...in reference to Yankee right-handed pitcher Chien Ming Wang:

How tempted are you to use the nickname for the Yankees in conjunction with this guy's last name?

"Hard Shot Injures Yanks Wang"
"Yanks Wang Undergoes Tommy John"
"Girardi Adjusts Rotation, Yanks Wang"

I still feel the best missed (I think) opportunity arose when Rich Harden was still playing for the A's and a game in Oakland pitted him against Andy Pettitte.

Pettitte and Harden. If I was a journalist I would have had a field day.

You don't even need to go with the team name, really.

"Standing Tall, Wang Throws Off High Heat"
"Questionable Decision to Pull Wang Out in 7th"
"(Team Name) Needs Strong Arm to Beat Wang"
"Stiff Wang Gets Yanks in Tight Spot"
