Matsui Signs With Yankees Just Before Deadline By TYLER KEPNER
Arn Tellem said Monday that he and his client Hideki Matsui were "exploring the great restaurants of New York." They dined again yesterday for the third night in a row, and the meal was a celebration.
Matsui, the Yankees' left fielder, agreed to a four-year contract worth $52 million last night. The deal was never really in doubt. The Yankees wanted Matsui back and had the money to keep him. But the contract was not completed until about two hours before last night's midnight deadline.
