Scott Ostler, Answer Man:
Q: What’s next for Bellamy Road, the George Steinbrenner-owned horse that finished seventh at the Kentucky Derby?
A: A dignified “retirement” is in store for the gallant steed. He has been stuffed and mounted and fitted with skate wheels and a motor. He will bring Yankee relievers in from the bullpen.
Incidentally, that procedure undergone by Bellamy Road is known as Don Zimmer surgery.
