Sundays with Serby: Yankees rookie first baseman Ben Rice 'earns' his pinstripes

Yankees rookie first baseman Ben Rice takes a swing at some Q&A with Post columnist Steve Serby.
Q: You wanted to be a comedian in fifth grade?
A: (Laugh) I think I might have said that, yeah. I can’t remember for sure, but I definitely was a little bit of a class clown. So I think that was at the top of my aspiration list - probably still second to being a baseball or hockey player.
Q: Class clown in what way? What would you do?
A: I don’t know, I was probably very disruptive in class, very distracting to my classmates (smile). I definitely had my fair share of warnings or trips to the principal’s office or timeouts maybe … just blurting stuff out, just typical little-boy stuff.
Q: Did you have a favorite comedian?
A: When I was younger I don’t know if I had one. Nowadays I like Bill Burr, another Boston guy.

NYY shows no hustle or heart. Hope Rice helps this roster earn the right to wear pinstripes.
