Hank Steinbrenner, the oldest son of George Steinbrenner, and co-owner of the New York Yankees has passed away at the age of 63.
Along with his brother, Hank inherited the team after their father’s passing in 2010. Despite being the more outspoken of the brothers, he had previously stepped away from the public spotlight as his health worsened in recent years.
Hank Steinbrenner, George’s eldest, has passed away from a long battle with an illness not coronavirus related, per @Joelsherman1. Hank was a Yankees’ co-owner and once ran the team along with his brother Hal, the team’s main owner.
