Thank you, Janice.

Although a native New Englander, I spent most every summer as a child in the Bronx. So, most of my summers were spent watching the Yankees.

I love it when the fans come together. :-)

It was much longer and more emotional than this video. Hoping they put up a full version.

Diehard Red Sox fan here, but my father was a Yankees fan.

Thanks Roseann.

Thanks so much for finding the full version Janice. I Come from a family of die hard Yankee fans and yesterday was a sad day indeed!

Thanks Joann. It's surprising how many New Englanders are Yankee fans.

Going through my Dad's old scrapbook, over 75 years old, I found pictures of games at the old Yankee stadium. I keep thinking he would have loved this. He also would have been 100 years old this coming November.

Thank you to both you and Roseann for taking the time to look and comment.

Glad to see the year long Jeter Appreciation Tour finally come to an end. My Braves were up 2 games to zip on them in 1996 and lost the World Series. players move on; real fans carry grudges!
