March 16, 2008 -- TAMPA - Former Yankee Jim Leyritz - who is facing DUI manslaughter charges - received a warm welcome at the clubhouse today.

Leyritz bumped into manager Joe Girardi on Saturday and asked his former teammate if he could visit Legends Field while he was in the area to meet with his accountant, according to GM Brian Cashman.

"He ran into Girardi, and he asked if he could come by and say hello," Cashman said of the 44-year-old, 1996 World Series hero and two-time Yankee.

"He came by to say hello to former teammates. Other than that, I have no comment."

Leyritz was in the clubhouse for one hour and 40 minutes and spent time in the players' lounge chatting with Andy Pettittet.gif, who greeted Leyritz with a hug in the hallway outside the clubhouse. Leyritz also exchanged hugs with Shelley Duncant.gif.

After brushing by reporters on the way into the clubhouse, Leyritz dodged questions on the way out thanks to a cell phone planted in his ear.

Leyritz is free on $11,000 bond after a Dec. 28 collision in Fort Lauderdale in which another driver, Fredia Ann Veitch, was killed.

Veitch left behind two children and a husband.

Who had the stopwatch going to keep track of how long he was in the clubhouse??
