Yankees in the Hall of Fame - Paperback

by Cheri Dohnal (Author), Kerry Keene (Author), Raymond P. Sinibaldi (Author)

The New York Yankees are the most successful franchise in the history of sports. When they were founded as the New York Highlanders, no one could have imagined how high they would land, capturing 40 American League pennants and a staggering 27 World Series championships. Many of baseball's all-time greats have shined in Yankee pinstripes on their way to the Baseball Hall of Fame. The dynasty's birth featured Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig in the "House that Ruth Built." Legendary greats followed: Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle, Whitey Ford, Casey Stengel, and Reggie Jackson. In the new millennium, Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera picked up the torch, carrying it from the Bronx to Cooperstown.
