Don Mattingly as Mother Ginger in the Nutcracker
Yankees captain in the mid-1980s and '90s, Don Mattingly
Former Yankees first baseman Don Mattingly, who carried the ball club in their not-so-hey days from 1983-1995, was back home in Evansville, Ind., recently.
Mattingly traded in his Dodgers manager's uniform for a blonde wig, a big poofy dress and a guest spot as Mother Ginger in a local production of "The Nutcracker." Watch and enjoy.
