Sadly, the historic stadium will close following the 2008 baseball season. But it will never be forgotten.
In Memories of Yankee Stadium, award-winning columnist and best-selling author Scott Pitoniak provides fans with hundreds of anecdotes about the iconic ballpark through the eyes of both those who performed there and those who were spectators. The book includes an impressive mix of well-known people, including Mickey Mantle, Bob Costas, Billy Crystal, and Keith Olbermann. But the voices of the unfamous are also present in this oral history. Fans, announcers, organists, 9/11 survivors, and others talk about their favorite memories of the ballpark and what impact it has had on their lives.
