12th January, 2009 - 9:48 am
Crain's New York - Fans in New York City have been buying up t-shirts of new Mets' closer Francisco Rodriguez and new Yankees' starter CC Sabathia.

"We've sold them out three times," says John Camilleri, operations manager for Sports Avenue, which runs both the Mets and Yankees Clubhouse shops in the city. "Normally, [David] Wright and [Derek] Jeter are tops, but Mets' fans are buying K-Rod and nothing else, and Yankees' fans are buying Sabathia and nothing else."

Fans bought more than 5,000 of each player's shirts from Modell's Sporting Goods before the end of last year. [READ]
