Probably amateur driver Joe Lee who is the assistance equipment manager for the Yankees.

Joe Lee has worn the uniform of the New York Yankees, but he’s never had a base hit, struck out an opposing batter or made a diving catch. He can only be found behind the scenes. Lee has been with the Yankees since 1995, first as a bat boy and currently as the assistant equipment manager.

There may not be much glory in that, but Lee has found a side job that gives him his thrills, his equivalent of teeing off on a fat fastball over the middle of the plate and sending it into the bleachers. The 37-year-old Yankee employee is among the hottest amateur drivers in North America, having won 17 races (as of March 15) since the start of 2015.

Love how the title of the video is "funny helmet" because no one has a clue what harness racing is.
