an yall dont want to about the 2009 yankees because of what.

Anybody know what that music that plays from 14:01-15:56

❤Go Yankees Nation. Fact’s : 🎉

I'm a Mets fan, but always enjoyed going to Yankee stadium with my Yankee fan buddies. It's such a shame it was torn down.

No muss, no fuss, all guts. R.I.P. Thurm.

While his numbers don't add up to a Hall of Famer, without the injuries it's certain he would have got to 3,000 hits and became a HoF player.

My all-time favorite player. He's a reason I became a Yankees fan in 1984.

2008 it’s a cathedral. In 2009, it’s a pile of rubble. Kind of ruined baseball for Yankee fans.

I'm a 74-year-old fan of the national pastime and a kid/adolescent/man who never liked the Yankees. Since 1958, growing up in San Francisco, have been a lifelong Giants and NL fan (not including the Dodgers). Three Yankees who I couldn't help liking; Berra, Ford, and Jeter. This documentary was superb. I learned a lot about Whitey that I knew nothing about. Many thanks.

I’m a Dodger fan, but I believe that Thurman Munson should be in the Hall of Fame. He’s the reason why they won the World Series 2 times in a row against my Dodgers despite I wasn’t born yet during that time.

I feel very lucky and fortunate that I was able to catch a game in 2004 at old Yankee Stadium, I was 17 years old at the time. I was on a trip with my mom to New York City and I made it a point that we go to a game at Yankee Stadium. I am so glad that I did, I will hold onto those memories forever.

Detroit tigers fan since 1976. We had Tiger stadium that I loved but Yankee Stadium was the Ultimate. Was 10 years old watching Reggie Jackson launch 3 homeruns in the world series. Epic iconic Yankee Stadium of old !

Caros

As a functional alcoholic Billy is not only an inspiration, hes a warning.

1:04:46

I was born in 04 and my dad loves to make jokes about that, but that’s separate haha, I remember being. Skittle kid for the 90 World Series and I have one memory of that awesome a-rod home run in the too of the 9th when we were down by 1 my literally only memory of that whole series is that 2 run bomb because I was 6 and homeruns were cool 😂

All players secretly yearn to be Yankees. All fans secretly fantastize to ne Yankees fans.

Go Yankees

The old yankee stadium was a dump. The renovations in the 70s made it worse. The new yankee stadium is great, so comfortable too. Go the mighty Yankees.

The greatest stadium to ever exist.

Red Sox fan, you know the story. That stadium should have been converted to a monument. Not torn down.

This is a joke…the new stadium is nothing. Until they win, it may as well be Tropicana Field…in San Diego. The old Stadium was the cathedral.

The Old Yankee is still Yankee stadium and always will be.

The old Yankee Stadium, in all her glory was like going to a church! They never ever should have torn it down!! The new stadium doesnt have that aura! Yankee Stadium was there with Wrigley, Fenway, Dodgers Stadium, it was baseball!!

I'm from Toronto. Was lucky enough to see two games at the Cathedral of baseball. Saw one game in August of 2000 and another in July of 2007 on old timers day. Loved it! Absolute disgrace they tore it down. I have absolutely no desire to see the new place! None at all!

The SHRINE!

A deeply troubled man ..Who treated baseball like a all consuming obsession. But a great mananger .

My fathers favorite Only died 4 days before his birthday

They forgot one unlikely win when they produce this. Yeah it wasn’t a walk off homer, but it was when Luis Castillo dropped that pop up. I was at that game with my girlfriend at the time, my best friend, and her sister

The new stadium is nice but it’s something about the old Stadium. The first time I visited, it was in 2005 against the Blue Jays. I will never forget it. I know there’s some debate that Yankee Stadium died when George Steinbrenner took over and they renovated it for like that two year period. And also in that two-year period, the Yankees were playing at Shea Stadium. In 2008 they were celebrating the fact that it’s no longer going to be on the current grounds that they were on and they were going to move across the street. As a Yankee fan, I felt that even Shea Stadium should’ve never been torn down as well.

I for the life of me, cannot understand how they could tear this historic stadium down. The House that Ruth built, the house the Yankees demolished. Just an obscene travesty. If there’s one thing that makes me grateful that I’m a Cubs fan and not the Yankees is the reverence we have for Wrigley Field. Just grateful we will not be like the Yankee fan base who allowed the history of their baseball shrine to be desecrated.

I was lucky enough to have been a part of a MLB team.... As I walked up to the Stadium, I was greeted by the then clubhouse manager Pete Sheehy who promptly greeted me and took my team bag in hand as we walked into the bowels of the Stadium, and into the visitors clubhouse to plop down my bag. Then Pete took me over to the Yankee clubhouse and introduced me to several of the players there. Walking out onto the field had me tingling all over. Here I was, by myself, along with the Gods of baseball past. Having grown up in NJ, I had been to the Stadium many times, but not like this. I am one lucky fella indeed......

Why tear it down? I'll tell you why. The most evil owner in all of sports history. George Von Steingrabber. The Roman Coliseum still stands for over 2,000 years. "The House That Ruth Built" for less than a hundred. The history not only with the Yankees but the N.Y Giants. Also great Heavyweight Championship fights with Joe Lewis & Rocky Marciano. Makes sense doesn't it? Let's demolish a stadium that held close to 70,000 & build a baby ballpark that holds only 47,000. All in a city that has 9 million. Do all this just so his rich friends could have luxury boxes. The destroyer of baseball got his way. Funny, never heard a peep from Yankee fans when the wrecking ball arrived!

Favorite Yankee. 🙏🏼 #51

My favorite yankee before my time

Why isn't Nettles in the hall of fame?

And they demolished it....😢 life longer here..wrong move

I was very fortunate to visit the old Yankee Stadium and catch couple of games back in 2007, the new stadium was in construction across the street and during the stadium tour as everyone was walking towards monument park i stopped on the outfield and thought of all the leyends that had played on that field like Ruth, Gehrig, Berra, Dimaggio, Larsen, Mantle, Marris, Reggie, etc. and got a bit emotional knowing that the stadium will be demolished very soon.

33:20

I am so lucky to have had a beloved father who took me to the original House that Ruth Built, and then to Shea Stadium when the Yankees played there, to the newer House that Ruth built. He was a die hard Dodgers fan, so he hated the Yankees, and was more comforatable going to Mets games.💜💜💜💜

Not to mention the best closer in history, but he did it where the lights shined the brightest in pinstripes, not many can say that…

Long live Thurman’s memory. xoxo The Clarences

Thurman Munson NEEDS to be in Cooperstown NOW!

I am from Hertford north Carolina. My granddad's baseball coach in high school was catfishes brother.

If you believe the Astros should have their 2017 title stripped away but not the 2009 Yankees. Then your hypocrisy shows.

George was actually born exactly 8 years before John Sterling.

They could have renovated the stadium they wanted to call it the house that's steinbrenner built

Defense, homers, clutch hits, leadership… and he never backed down from anyone.
