My removal also cost my love for the Yanks. Lifelong Yankee fan. Mother checked the scores, before waking me up. Had books, Mantle, Casey, Joe. Saw Mantle and JoeD play in same outfield. Even went to one playoff game thanks to Koenig. Shirts. Paraphenalia. All gone except for this shirt and hat.
When I worked night court in the Bronx and they played, I went to see an inning or two. Bad Jou Jou. Opening day for 25 years. I bled pin stripes. Rooted against Maris. Loved Thurm and Jete.
This series will be a classic. It needs little to make it more than epic.
