Yankee Stadium Drops Sinatra After Losses

The New York Yankees are breaking with tradition. After years of playing Frank Sinatra's iconic "Theme From New York, New York" after both wins and losses at Yankee Stadium, the team will now play a rotating selection of songs following defeats.

This change follows a 4-0 loss to the Detroit Tigers, where "That's Life" played instead. The tradition of playing Sinatra's classic had been in place since 1980.
