From the Yankees PR Department:
To honor the memory of Houk, Yankees will wear black armbands on the left sleeve of their jerseys for the remainder of the 2010 season.
The Yankees players and coaches wore black armbands on their left sleeve in honor of George M. Steinbrenner III at the Midsummer Classic, but that was only temporary. Soon after, the organization came up with a patch for both Sheppard and Steinbrenner. The armband honoring Houk will remain for the rest of the season.
