Paperback. Condition: New. (The Least Among Them) is the ultimate insider book." - Marty Appel "This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball's power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond." - Jonathan Eig The Least Among Them is a most special baseball book that looks at the New York Yankees history in an original, unique, and never before written manner. Throughout their history, the New York Yankees have been defined by the legends and the successes of their most famous players. But, as part of their long history, the Yankees have also fielded players that have become lost to history. This book is those players' story, telling the unique histories of the men whose entire major league baseball career lasted but a single game with that game being played as a New York Yankee. While these players may be forgotten, their stories are compelling. Filled with a unique Yankee history, single game stats, and a love of baseball, The Least Among Them tells the story of baseball's most successful franchise in an entirely new way.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The history of the Yankees in a way no one has ever told it before - by the numbers they wore on their backs. The Greatest Yankees By Uniform Number is a completely original look at the history of the New York Yankees, not by decades or championships, but through the uniform numbers worn by the players. For each uniform number we examine the players who wore that number and determine which among them was the best player while wearing that number. The greats like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, and Mariano Rivera will, of course, rise to the top, but less famous Yankees such as Gus Niarhos, Dooley Womack, Jim Bouton, and many others will also get their due. Along the way, Paul Semendinger gives the readers big ideas to debate and discuss such as who was the greater catcher Yogi Berra or Bill Dickey (they both wore uniform number 8) and should managers have their numbers retired? The history of uniform numbers, retired numbers, Monument Park, and even greatness is examined.…
