The NY Yankees retired the “Catain’s” number today. As always, he handled it with class, professionalism and demonstrated his love for NY fans and the Yankees.
I have said previously, I saw DiMaggio, Mantle, Ford, Rizzuto, Berra, Maris, Richardson, Munson, Mercer, etc. play the game. They were the heroes of my youth. However, none were the leader, all around player and overall good person like the “Captain”.
So here’s to a true champion. With respect. Always a New York Yankee
