I love the Yankees so much i can’t wait to read this book, The Yankee Years. I grew up in new york and would always go to yankee games with my grandfather. Those were some of the best times of my life. I can’t wait to gain my Yankee knowledge so i can in turn, do the same for my boys. Just like my grandfather, i will point out every player and talk about who was there before them. I can’t wait to read it!!
