Welcome to another year of Yankee baseball.
"This is the 90th anniversary of the most dominant team in the history of professional sports. The Yankees have won 22 World Championships and 33 American League pennants in 89 years.
While most teams are looking for their first World Championship or can only point to one standout period in their history, the Yankees can claim several distinct eras within their overall dominance of major league baseball.
Yankee greatness was sprouted by the combined greatness of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. From Ruth's arrival in New York in 1920 to his departure from the Yankees in 1934, the Pinstripers won four World Championships and seven American League pennants.
DiMaggio's arrival in 1936 started the tradition of great Yankee center fielders, and by his retirement in 1951, the Yankees had added 10 more World Series and 11 pennants.
Mickey Mantle picked up the torch from there, contributing six additional World Championships and 11 pennants before he retired in 1969.
After a dry spell of years ago, Thurman Munson and Reggie Jackson had the Yankees back on track in the late '70s with two more World Champions and three AL titles.
Now the team has been reshaped and regrouped, ready to add to this rich Yankees' rich tradition. We don't who in today's lineup will become legends. But Yankees like Don Mattingly, Bernie Williams, Danny Tartabull, and a host of others are beginning to leave their marks in the Yankee record book.
The Yankees originally joined the American League in 1903 and were known as the 'Highlanders.' Around 1913 the nickname 'Yankees' was adopted and a couple years later Pinstripes appeared on their uniforms. Their first American League pennant was won in 1921, and they claimed their first world championship in 1923. In 1929, the Yankees were the first team to add numbers to the back of their uniforms. The 'Yankee Pride and Tradition' was on its way.
Now in 1993 the Yankees proudly wear the same uniforms, play in the same ballpark, in the same great city, and carry on the same tradition established when they won their same world championship.
We take great pride in welcoming you to the 90th anniversary of Yankee baseball ... be a part of it ... as the Bronx Bombers and their fans strive for yet another world title."

70 YEARS OF MAGIC & MEMORIES IN THE BRONX
"Majestic, historic, a landmark that is part of our lives, Yankee Stadium has loomed for 70 dramatic baseball years over the banks of the Harlem River. Like the Empire State Building and Carnegie Hall, it's a structure that helps define and symbolize our city.
Stroll onto the field on a day when there's no game, when the scoreboard and giant TV screen are silent, when the graceful sweep of thousands of seats are empty in the hush of a fair spring day. And let your imagination take you back to other times, other eras to conjure up images of a golden past.
It's 1927: Babe swings his lusty bat to send homer no. 60 in to the right field stands. In 1961 Maris Rockets No. 61 into those same stands. The Mick slams a ball off the edge of the upper rightfield facade in 1963, only six inches from exiting the premises, the mightiest shot ever hit in the great Stadium. Number crunchers estimate that since the ball was rising when it met the facade, unimpeded it would have traveled 620 feet!
And there's Joe D., on May 15, 1941, socking the first hit on his way to a 56-game hitting streak. Reggie- the eminent Mr. October- wallops three homers in a row in the final game of the 1977 Series, each on a first pitch, a one-man gang blasting the Los Angeles Dodgers. And who's that fellow, that compound of guile and guts on the mound, the same mound where toiled Hoyt, and Whitey, and Allie, and Gator?
Yes, that's Don Larsen in 1956, setting down the Brooklyn Dodgers with no hits, no runs, no walks, no hope, on his way to the only perfectly pitched game in World Series history. And that man dabbing at his eyes in the most poignant moment ever in the Stadium? It's Lou Gehrig in 1939, standing before a packed house, an Iron Man slowly dying, telling us that 'Today I consider myself that luckiest man on the face of the earth.'
"These, and so many other memorable occasions in the famed Bronx ballpark, are there if you open your mind and heart to a great past. They are unforgettable events that had their beginning one winter day in 1922 when two men surveyed a spread of scrubby land, 16 minutes by subway from Times Square.
They were a couple of Colonels named Ruppert and Huston, co-owners of the Yankees, tramping over a desolate old Bronx lumber yard with a brook running through it. One look convinced them: they shelled out $675,000 for that land, and said, 'We'll build it here.' What they erected on that scrub of land, confusion of boulders and rotting lumber, was a Stadium destined to be as famous as the ancient Roman Colosseum.
Today, even low-level minor-league teams have their own ball parks, so it's hard to believe that from 1913 to the end of 1922 the Yankees didn't have a home they could call their own. After vacating wooden, rickety Hilltop Park at the end of the 1912 season, the Yankees played their home games in Manhattan's Polo Grounds, then the Giants' home park.
-o-
With the arrival of Ruth and his explosive home run bat in 1920, the Yankees began outdrawing the Giants, a situation disagreeable to Giant manager John McGraw and Giant owner Charles Stoneham. So Mssrs. McGraw and Stoneham, in no uncertain terms, told Colonels Ruppert and Huston to move, prompting the Yankees to snap up the 10 acres on the banks of the Harlem.
The two Yankee partners usually couldn't agree on the time of day, but on two moves they did concur- with historic consequences. One was the purchase of the Babe from the Red Sox, the other was the construction of the new Yankee home. With Huston supervising- he was an experienced professional engineer- and the White Construction Company of New York doing the construction, work began on the first triple-decked stadium in the USA.
'This is a big mistake,' groused John McGraw. 'They are going up to Goatville, and before long they will be lost sight of. A New York team should be based on Manhattan Island.' In the light of baseball history, McGraw was a great manager but a second-rate prophet.
Completed in less than a year, the stadium cost $2,500,000 in uninflated bucks. It wasn't a 'ball park,' the Yankees emphasized, it was a 'stadium,' the first so designated in all of baseball. And, at that time, the largest home for a baseball club. Dedicated on April 18, 1923, it soon became the most celebrated of all stadiums.
Yankee general manager Ed Barrow announced that a record 74,000 fans attended the opening game, which the Yankees won 4-1 from the Red Sox as the Babe (of course) rapped the first homer into the rightfield bleachers (naturally). A fitting way to inaugurate an edifice that became a home of champions and records, set by great players.
Later, Barrow, a genius in wheeling and dealing for ball players and a clever promoter, implied in an onset of candor that he'd somewhat inflated the crowd number. It seems that 64,00 fans was closer to the truth. Still, that was much higher than any previous crowd count, so the first Stadium crowd was a bona fide record. If the Colonels had built a fourth deck they could have filled it that Opening Day, because 20,000 fans milled around the streets, tormented whenever they heard the lucky ones in the stands erupting at a big play.
Despite its official name of Yankee Stadium, the big ball yard soon became known as the 'House That Ruth Built.' With due respect to the other athletes on the Yankee roster, the name was appropriate. For it was the Babe and his blasts into the rightfield bleachers, a section to be forever known as 'Ruthville,' that tormented opposing pitchers and made the turnstiles click in record numbers.
The grandstands of the new stadium ended at the foul poles, giving pull hitters tempting targets 295 feet down the rightfield line, and 281 feet on the leftfield line. But those numbers were deceptive. If you wanted to reach the spacious rightfield bleachers or the Yankee bullpen past the rightfield foul pole, you had to belt the ball around 350 feet. A wallop into the left field bleachers or adjacent visitors' bullpen had to travel 325-375 feet.
Today, years after Ruth, Gehrig and their slugging Yankee cohorts are gone, baseballs caught by those sun worshippers are treasured possessions of the children and grandchildren of old time Yankee bleacherites. And if autographed by Babe or Lou- free and gladly in those simpler days- the baseballs will today pay for a year's tuition to a first-class college.
Hitters challenging the dead centerfield stands with soaring fly balls were doomed to frustration and long outs. The seats beyond what was known as 'Death Valley' were a far away and discouraging 461 feet. Indeed, one source gives the 1923 distance to dead center as 490 feet, but that sounds like somebody misread his tape measure. In any case, nobody- not Ruth, or Gehrig, or any other sluggers around the league- ever reached the stands in dead center.
Survivors from the old Negro Leagues insist that herculean black slugger Josh Gibson whacked a fair ball past the leftfield foul pole, out of the Stadium, out of sight, during a Negro League doubleheader. How far it really traveled is anybody's guess.
As for leftfielders covering the centerfield outer space, it took fleet-footed types like Earle Combs and Joe DiMaggio - and the condition of a marathoner- to pull in long, towering shots.
Until the early 1930s, there was no public address system in Yankee Stadium. Lineup changes during a game were announced by a leather-lunged guy hollering the names through what must have been the largest portable megaphone ever. He'd circle the field, bellowing as he went, until everyone got the message, then exit to recuperate. He was no Bob Sheppard; but then, who else can match the singular Mr. Sheppard?
The largest validated crowd at the Stadium is 83,533 (81,841 paid, 1,692 freebies), set on May 30, 1938, in a Memorial Day doubleheader with the Red Sox. The Yankees won both games, 10-0, 5-4. We don't know how many hot dots and peanuts were sold that day, but it too must have been a record. In the first game the already stricken Gehrig was 2-for-5, in the second 2-for-4, an indication of what an extraordinary athlete he was. And in the 1939 World Championship year DiMaggio hit his career-high and league-leading ,381 on one of Joe McCarthy's eight Yankee pennant winners and seven World Champions.
In 1928 the grandstand was extended past the leftfield foul pole, and in 1937 and 1938 past the right field pole. Like the bleacherites, fans sitting in any one of those lengthened grandstands could now scramble for homers whammed by the likes of Dickey, Henrich and DiMaggio. The leftfield foul line was lengthened to 301 feet in 1928; in 1930 the rightfield line was 296 feet, still a tempting target for Yankee sluggers. As for straightaway center, 'Death Valley' became slightly less lethal. By 1976 the centerfield fence was 417 feet from the plate, not exactly a chip shot but a gesture of compassion towards outfielders living high on the hog.
As the years passed Bomber pennants and World Championships accumulated at an astonishing rate. From 1923 to 1973, the last year of the original Stadium, the Yankees won 27 pennants and 20 World Championships in what we'll call Stadium One; years when the immortal Casey Stengel managed his great Yankee clubs to 10 pennants and seven World Championships. No other club has approached those marks, nor is it likely that one will in the next 50 years.
Miller Huggins was the Yankee skipper when the club won its first six pennants and three World Championships in Stadium One, all in the 'Roaring Twenties.' After Hug's sudden death in 1929, a monument was erected to his memory in the outfield on May 30, 1932. This was the beginning of a tradition. Monuments to Gehrig and Ruth followed, as well as plaques honoring Ruppert and Barrow.
-o-
Today, Monument Park displays plaques and monuments honoring 19 eminent Yankees. Happily, some of these players are still thriving: e.g. Joe DiMaggio, Phil Rizzuto and Yogi Berra. In addition there are two plaques, gifts of the Knights of Columbus, commemorating the historic visits to the Stadium of Pope Paul VI (1965) and Pope John Paul II (1979). Originally the monuments and plaques were on the edge. sometimes reachable by shots off the bats of muscled sluggers. Now fans can visit them in a special enclosed section beyond the playing field.
By 1973 the Stadium was 50 years old and showing its age. So a bond issue was floated to finance a major reconstruction, and the team left the Bronx to play in Shea Stadium while the Yankees' home was completely rebuilt. What emerged- let's call it Yankee Stadium Two- was a spanking new edifice as pleasing to the eye as the old stadium, but with modern upgraded facilities.
On April 15, 1976, Yankee Stadium Two welcomed new generations of fans with an 11-4 victory against the Twins. A hi-tech scoreboard and TV screen dominated centerfield and the new lights were state-of-the-art. (Night baseball had arrived in the Stadium on May 28, 1946.) In addition to the many fast food stands, elegant restaurants and lounges serving everything from a tasty burger to a gourmet-style meal, parts of the scalloped ornamentation which decorated the upper facade of Stadium One were preserved. They now hang above the outfield area, a nostalgic symbol of the great Yankee past.
Beneath and behind the stands, reached by a complex of passageways, are parts of the Stadium fans never get to see. These included Yankees and visitors clubhouses, equipment rooms, extensive training and conditioning areas, and medical facilities that are a cross between a first-aid station and a hospital clinic. There is a room set aside for players' wives with infant children. The press and broadcast media is served in a special dining room; after the games, the stories written in the adjoining press room are filed directly to the respective papers.
All Yankee publications- Yankees Magazine, the Yearbooks, the Media Guides- are published in the Stadium. And all club business offices- Executive, Media, Public Relations and Baseball Operations- are located in the Stadium. For ball players the season ends in autumn, but the business of running the Yankees goes on year-round on the original 10 acres.
Despite the changes the years have brought, one part of the Yankee home remains happily the same. Stadium Two surrounds the same historic ball field on which great Yankee ball players, and outstanding athletes from other clubs, worked their magic. On this historic diamond played the great Babe, the courageous Gehrig, the slick Whitey, the incomparable DiMaggio, the mighty Mickey. And Roger, Ellie, the Scooter, Reggie, Dickey, Yogi and so many others who became baseball immortals. For true Yankee fans the Stadium diamond, flourishing in green splendor, is the vibrant heart of Yankee tradition. It is their field of dreams come to life, their once and future home of champions.
Ebbets Field and the Polo Grounds have joined the ghosts of lost ball parks. Some teams have wandered from one city to another. But the Yankees and Yankee Stadium remain in New York, standing proud on the banks of the Harlem, a magnificent reminder of a fabulous past, yet firmly anchored in the present. In the 70th anniversary of the Stadium's celebrated existence, the New York Yankees, the most famous of all sports franchises, still at home in the most renowned of stadiums, rebuilds again to rise again the rank of champions.
Happy 70th Birthday, Yankee Stadium!"

YANKEES FAN FESTIVAL
"The third annual Yankees fan festival, held February 5-7, 1993, was a Yankee fan's dream come true. The event provided fans with an opportunity to get up close and personal with their favorite Yankee players, past and present, during the off-season.
A sold-out crowd, which totaled 10,000 people, flocked to the Jacob Javits Convention Center in Manhattan to partake in the many activities. All of the Festival's proceeds were donated to the Yankee Foundation and the Children's Heart Fund. The Yankee Foundation is a non-profit organization that benefits charities in the New York area. The Children's Heart Fund, which Don Mattingly supports extensively, provides medical care to underprivileged youngsters who would not otherwise be able to receive it.
Among the many activities available were collecting autographs from members of the '93 Yankees team. Danny Tartabull, Melido Perez, Bernie Williams, Pat Kelly and Mattingly, along with newest Yankees Jim Abbott, Jimmy Key, Spike Owen and Paul O'Neill were some of the many players who helped entertain the fans who traveled from all parts of the country to see their favorite Bronx Bombers.
The Festival included a strong lineup of former players including Tommy Henrich, Ron Guidry, Tommy John, Don Larsen, Bob Lemon, Mickey Rivers and Roy White. Other notables included former Yankees Ron Blomberg, Clete Boyer, Mike Torrez, Phil Linz, Joe Pepitone, Hector Lopez, Johnny Blanchard and George Frazier.
In addition to the autograph sessions, a collection of exhibits was available to participants at no extra charge. One of the more popular activities was provided by former Yankee John Montefusco. The Count's batting cage simulates the image of an actual major league pitcher throwing off a mound. The realistic effect attracted the attention of fans and players alike.
Also available was the Donruss Baseball Card Photo Booth. Fans could have their likeness in a Yankee uniform recreated on a baseball with their own personal statistics on the back. A Fantasy Play-By-Play Booth enabled fans to record and take home on videotape a great moment in Yankee history. Chris Chambliss' 1976 pennant-clinching home run versus the Royals, Reggie Jackson's three home runs in the '77 Series or the last half-inning of Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series were some of the many great moments to recreate.
Two exhibits open for viewing were the Photo Gallery and the Halper Memorabilia Showcase. The Photo Gallery displayed large, rare black-and-white and color photos encompassing Yankee history from 1923 to the present. The Halper Memorabilia Showcase featured uniforms from the extensive collection of renowned collector Barry Halper.
In recognition for taking part in the Festival, all fans were allowed to exchange their ticket stub for a free ticket to a '93 Yankee game.
'We are happy to offer fans a one-time charge for this event which covers the cost of autographs, making your own baseball card, a free videocassette, free swings at the batting cage and a free ticket to an upcoming Yankees game,' said Kathy Korleski, Fan Festival coordinator. 'We feel these factors are what separate a Yankee show from an ordinary card show because of the value it offers to fans.'
The admission charge enabled fans to enter the Silent Auction Room where they could bid on unique Yankee items such as Don Mattingly's signed home jersey, autographed bats, team-autographed batting helmets and the authentic Yankee bullpen car were auctioned off.
Activities fans could bid on included 'Photographer for a Day,' 'Meet the Manager Night,' 'Groundskeeper for a Day,' and the 'All-Star Trip to Baltimore' excursion.
Numerous card dealers and exhibitors displayed memorabilia ranging from baseball cards to autographed jerseys of Hall of Famers and much more. Major League Marketing, producers of Score and Pinnacle baseball cards, distributed its new products. A caricaturist was also on hand, as was a booth where fans could have their picture taken and put on the cover of Yankees Magazine. In addition, tickets to future Yankee home games were on sale as well as full and partial season ticket plans.
The Fourth Annual Fan Festival, scheduled for February 4-6, 1994, promises plenty of exciting surprises aimed to make the event bigger and better than ever.
'We are very excited that the Third Annual Festival sold out, and we are concentrating on extending invitations to even more Yankee players and increasing activities for the fans,' said Korleski.
You don't want to miss it, so get your tickets and we'll see you there!"

YANKEES IN THE COMMUNITY
"A strong commitment to the community has always been one of the most important objectives of the New York Yankees. Again in 1993, the Yankees are heavily involved with numerous charities, non-profit organizations, schools, and youth groups in the New York Metropolitan area.
-The New York Yankees Official 1993 Yearbook
YANKEE FOUNDATION
"Since its formation in 1973, the Yankees have contributed to the New York community through this philanthropic organization, founded by Yankees Principal Owner and General Partner George Steinbrenner. The Foundation has raised over $2.5 million for athletic, recreational and educational programs for New York's young people.
Some of the organizations which receive assistance from the Foundation include the New York Urban League, Boys Club of Greater New York, Boy Scouts, Big Brothers of New York, Catholic Youth Organization, Fresh Air Fund, Instructional Television, Police Athletic League, Patrolmen's Benevolent Association, the YWMCA as well as other numerous university programs."

THE WHITNEY M. YOUNG, JR. FOOTBALL CLASSIC
"Since 1971, the Yankees have sponsored and underwritten the Whitney M. Young, Jr. Memorial Football Classic in association with the New York Urban League. Proceeds from the game provide needed funds to help minority youth gain financial assistance in pursuit of a college education. The Yankees have raised over $650,000 since 1971."
-The New York Yankees Official 1993 Yearbook
THE CON EDISON/YANKEES BASEBALL PROGRAM
"This is the 26th year of the Con Edison/Yankees baseball program. Since 1968, Con Edison and the New York Yankees have provided free admission to Yankees games for more than 2.5 million area youngsters, ranging in age from 8 to 16. Every five children are accompanied by an adult chaperone. For many young people in New York City and Westchester County, this program has provided their first opportunity to attend a professional baseball game.
Tickets are distributed by Con Edison to youth organizations in New York and Westchester on a first-come, first-serve basis. More than 3,000 seats per game are made available to these organizations for 26 games a season.
As part of the program, Earl Battey, a former Minnesota Twins catcher and five-time American League All-Star, attends games with the children and serves as an expert 'answer man' for their questions about the baseball action.
The program was enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1976. It has also been recognized as 'a public service worthy of special recognition' in a New York City mayoral proclamation and has won the top public service award of the American Gas Association."
-The New York Yankees Official 1993 Yearbook
YANKEES/CITIBANK BASEBALL CLINICS
"Again in 1993, the Yankees and Citibank, in conjunction with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, are conducting 10 clinics in the city this summer. At each clinic, a Yankee player and coach give baseball instruction to youngsters in each of the five boroughs and also distribute free Yankee items.
The Yankees and Citibank also use the clinics as an opportunity to encourage the city's youngsters to stay in school and off drugs. The 1992 clinics were a major success and this year's promise to be even more popular."
-The New York Yankees Official 1993 Yearbook
YANKEES WINTER CARAVAN
"Each off-season numerous Yankee players and front office executives visit New York area high schools and hospitals where they meet and talk baseball with fans of all ages. The Yankees also host annual Halloween and Christmas parties for local children in the Stadium Club Restaurant in Yankee Stadium. Past and present Yankee stars attend the parties and spend the day with the children.
Current Yankees personnel also make individual efforts to help charities in the New York area. General Manager Gene Michael is a founder of the Gene Michael fund, a chapter of the Tomorrow's Children Fund. The fund raises money for research, care and assistance for children's cancer at the Hackensack Medical Center in New Jersey.
Don Mattingly is deeply involved with the Children's Health Fund, which provides mobile medical for New York City's homeless children. He also does work with the Easter Seals Society and the National Committee for the Prevention of Child Abuse.
Danny Tartabull is the national spokesman for Big Brothers for America and new Yankee Jimmy Key is a major contributor to the HELP housing program, the nation's largest provider of transitional housing for the homeless."
-The New York Yankees Official 1993 Yearbook
YANKEE STADIUM GROUND RULES
"Foul poles are outside the playing field. Any batted ball hitting a foul pole above the fence line is a home run. Bat racks are within the dugouts.
Any thrown ball hitting a dugout railing or foundation and rebounding on the field is in play. A ball going into the dugout or hitting other parts of the dugout- out of play."
