Caller tells Mike Francesa Jacoby Ellsbury deal might be best since Babe Ruth

Some folks are really loving that Jacoby Ellsbury signing for the New York Yankees. One guy even thinks it might be the Yanks’ best acquisition since Babe Ruth.

A guy named John in Connecticut called Mike Francesa on WFAN Wednesday to make his case for the big Ellsbury signing. He started off his call saying that it might be the best deal since Babe Ruth. John admits he’s a Red Sox fan, so it’s possible he could have just been stirring the pot with sarcasm, but that doesn’t make the phone call any less entertaining.

Many people listen to Francesa for his arrogance, to mock him, or because they enjoy his great banter with the callers. This phone call would definitely fit into that category. It is full of gold.
