The New York Yankees are one of baseball's most iconic franchises and as
much a part of New York as the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State
Building. From Joe DiMaggio and Derek Jeter to Babe Ruth and Masahiro
Tanaka, from Hall of Famers to rookie busts, the Yankees are baseball's
most beloved franchise. Jim Kaat, who has the unique experience of
playing for the Yankees as well as calling games for them in the booth,
had a prime seat to watch it all unfold. In this book, Kaat and Greg
Jennnings provide a closer look at the great moments and the lowlights
that have made the Yankees one of baseball's keystone teams. Through the
words of the players, via multiple interviews conducted with current and
past Yankees, readers will meet the players, coaches, and management and
share in their moments of greatness and defeat. Readers will find access
to the clubhouse as Kaat recounts moments such as Jeter's last contest
at Yankee Stadium; David Wells' perfect game; and the elation of the
1996, 1998, 1999, and 2000 World Series championships. It is a book that
New York baseball fans will not want to be without.
