"Mayor Bloomberg's pay-to-play deal for Randalls Island ballfields has struck out again.
For the second time in two years, a judge has thrown out a City Hall contract that gives 20 Manhattan private schools exclusive use of half of all the renovated ballfields at Randalls Island Park during school days.
The deal is a 'major concession,' which the Parks Department must first submit to the local community board and the City Council, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Marilyn Shafer ruled Tuesday."
