Alex Rodriguez expects respect for the Yankees, at least when he's in New York.

After the Yankees-Angels rain cancellation Saturday, A-Rod, his wife and friends went to Nobu 57, where he noticed a red Angels baseball hat in the crowd, reports The Post's Braden Keil.

On his way out, A-Rod shouted from across the room, "Hey, lose the hat!" A few patrons cheered. The red-faced, red-capped provocateur was sitting with Donnie Wahlberg, older brother of Mark — both of whom usually root for their hometown team, the hated Boston Red Sox.

--Right. And I'm sure if it was a Yankee hat that A-Rod would have also gone Emily Post-al on Wahlberg.

3 Actually, I preferred Jon. However, I never got into them much. I was too busy emulating Debbie Gibson.
