"Cecilia Tan has written a Yankee Doodle Dandy of a book. The
reader is taken through the dramatic ebb and flow of the 50
greatest Yankee games. We learn a lot about the team from the Bronx
in this fact-filled, entertainingly written opus. Should be
required reading for all fans of the New York Yankees."
--Harvey Frommer, author of "A Yankee Century and The New York
Yankee Encyclopedia"
Every Yankee fan has a memory they will never forget or a game
they wish they had seen. Covering an entire century of New York
Yankees baseball, The 50 Greatest Yankee Games brings together the
best (and sometimes worst) moments experienced by the most
successful sports franchise on the planet. You'll be there as: Babe
Ruth performs the most debated gesture in sports history Joe
DiMaggio reaches one milestone on his way to another "The Wild Man"
tames the Dodgers, but the Bombers fail to score Bobby Murcer
delivers the game-winning hit just hours after delivering the
eulogy at Thurman Munson's funeral Dave Righetti throws his
no-hitter against the Red Sox Don Mattingly shines, but Seattle
savors the day Derek Jeter saves the game and the season with a
"shovel pass"
From the Yankees' first World Series to the pennant race that
pitted Joe DiMaggio against Ted Williams to the Bucky Dent home run
game, you'll have the best seat in the stadium as you experience
all the excitement and drama. Featuring fascinating anecdotes and
vintage photographs, The 50 Greatest Yankee Games is the perfect
book for every Yankee fan and anyone who cherishes the game.
"Tan does a fine job choosing the most important contests from
100 seasons of Yankee baseball and recounting them in a gripping
style . . .developing entertaining, dramatic story lines."
--"Publisher's Weekly"
