MLB told Sherman that a search of its databases "could not find a Lance Dobbins drafted by the Yankees or any evidence of Lance Dobbins playing at any level with any of the 30 teams."

The Rays triumphed 10-8 in a wild one in 11 innings Monday, and they're now 6-1 over the last 7.

Sherman’s reporting, however, found no evidence of Lance Dobbins having a career with the Yankees.
