Yankees will formally introduce Joe Girardi on Thursday

The Yankees will roll out the red carpet for their new manager Thursday, formally introducing Joe Girardi at a Yankee Stadium press conference.

The event, slated to begin at 1 p.m., will feature all the pomp and circumstance, as Girardi will be presented with his pinstripes. This will be Girardi's third tenure in the Bronx, having played for the Bombers from 1996-99, winning three championships, then spending the 2005 season as Joe Torre's bench coach.

Girardi was hired Monday as the 32nd manager in team history, signing a three-year contract worth almost $8 million.
