5.0 out of 5 stars for all yankee fans December 25, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
to me yankee stadium is a shrine to the greatest players to ever put on the storied pinstripes. i can remember watching rhe cbs baseball game of the week as teenager in 1961. the broadcasts (in black and white) from the original stadium from 1923 are still burned in my memory. i can see maris in rf, mantle in cf, berra in lf, boyer at 3b, kubek at ss, richardson at 2b, skowron at 1b, howard at c, and ford on the mound. read this book and let the nostalgia engulf you. happy reading! aloha haleiwa jon
