NEW YORK -- The Yankees will present a $1 million check to the Salvation Army on Tuesday night, a donation announced by the club last week after Hurricane Katrina ravaged the Gulf Coast.

"Unfortunately, New Yorkers know firsthand the anguish associated with such a horrific disaster, but we also know there is great strength and generosity from so many willing to help those in need. As we have proved in the past, we are a resilient and determined country. It is the Yankees' hope -- and expectation -- that the best fans in the world will follow the lead of so many others in giving of themselves at a time when so much is needed."
