5. Was that Dr. Michael Dern sitting right behind the New York Yankee dugout during Saturday's game at Fenway Park? Dr. Dern or someone who looks very much like him, was seen on camera after a very smart boy convinced a Yankee coach to throw him a baseball while he was wearing a New York cap. As soon as he got the ball, he switched back to his Red Sox hat.
