Former New York Yankees' executive Steve Swindal pleaded no contest Thursday to driving under the influence of alcohol. He agreed to a suspended driver's license for six months and one year of probation. The 52-year-old Swindal once was designated as George Steinbrenner's successor to head of the Yankees. The team bought him out after one of the owner's daughters filed for divorce from Swindal. Swindal was arrested by St. Petersburg police on Feb. 15 and charged with the misdemeanor. He was out of town and did not appear in court for the plea. Swindal has to attend DUI school and pay a total of $720.50 in fines and costs. He must do 50 hours of community service, which he can buy out at $10 per hour. "We went ahead and resolved it the best way we could for the client," said Swindal's attorney, Kym B. Rivellini.
