Two New York Yankees' Pitchers Were Victims of Florida Robberies in 2022

A report from The New York Post named two New York Yankees' right-handed pitchers, Luis Severino and Domingo German, as victims of shockingly similar robberies in 2022. The report stated that both pitchers had their houses burglarized in 2022, while the two were playing in various home games at Yankee Stadium in The Bronx.

Police reports say Severino’s Tarpon Springs-area home was burglarized on June 1 and 3 of last year, while German's Thonotosassa residence was robbed on Aug. 19.

In total, over $320,000 worth of items were reported as stolen, according to reports. German's items, which were described as purses and watches, were valued at roughly $20,000, while Severino's stolen goods ("jewelry and other items") were worth roughly $300,000.

Authorities deduced that, based on the evidence available, these two crimes were likely committed by the same group of people. The suspects in-question were wearing masks, gloves and hoods when seen on surveillance footage.
