No way. That's the sign for the Spliturveange Screwfastup pitch that he used to call for when he was sitting behind the plate.

Torre said Don Mattingly and Larry Bowa will accompany him from New York as two members of his coaching staff in Los Angeles. Mattingly lost out to Joe Girardi for the Yankees' managerial job.
Mattingly may be the team's hitting coach, according to a source cited by 1050 ESPN New York's Andrew Marchand.
Mattingly was the Yankees' bench coach under Torre last season. He was the hitting coach for three seasons before that.
Bowa told Marchand that he'll be with the Dodgers, either as Torre's bench coach or third base coach. He was the Yankees' third-base coach last season.
