This book is dedicated to my mother, Rita, and late father, Wallace. I hope I've made you proud.

Page iv Acknowledgments Most writers dream of writing books, but very few actually develop an idea and follow it through to its conclusion. In this case, the idea of compiling short stories on the New York Yankees came from The Dreaming Dog Group. I thank the agency for the opportunity to take the idea and run with it. Without The Dog's assistance and faith in a rookie author, this book would not be in your hands. I would also like to thank Mike Pearson of Sports Publishing Inc. for agreeing to publish this book. I must thank the librarian of my research, faithful Yankees fan Craig Anderson, for supplying me with a seemingly endless supply of resource material on the Yankees. Valuable technical assistance was provided by Gary Carter and Jeff Ehmann. Without their input my words would have remained locked forever within outdated word processing programs. Their advice and hands-on help moved the project forward at a critical juncture. Finally, I must thank my many friends and family members who saw to it I kept this project moving in a positive direction. Special thanks goes out to Gary Carter, Diana Kazolias and my mother, Rita McMillan, for their caring and understanding through a painstaking process.
