| | | He has won four of the last five World Series, but Joe Torre is better known this week for his controversial All-Star selections. So, what's on the mind of the Yankees skipper entering the Midsummer Classic? Page 2 reveals all:

"Five batters ought to be about right for Roger tonight." |

"And if Piazza gets out of line, I'll sic the Gerbil on him." |

"I don't know what everybody's talking about. Hard to work for? This guy's a pussycat." |

"Here's my game plan: After the first pitch, I'll yank Boone, Ichiro and Olerud and replace 'em with Jeet, Bernie and Jorge." |

"I can't say it yet, but technically I named eight Yankees to the All-Star team." |

"Who said there's no crying in baseball?" |

"Thank God for Velcro Bobby. As long as he's working in this town, I'll always be Teflon Joe." |
