My family went to David Well's perfect game for my brothers birthday in 98 and this one for my birthday in 99. I'm probably one of the few people in the world to have been at 2 perfect games... Will remember for the rest of my life awesome moments
Amazing. I watched this game in its entirety. For Wells game I was sleeping because I used to work nights at the time. I woke up in order to start getting ready for work. I think it was the 8th inning when I started watching. Amazing time to be a yankees fan.
This is still the only Major League no-hitter in which the pitcher (Cone) never had a single 3 ball count. Absolutely amazing and I doubt that will ever be done again.
Whatever the case, this is one of the most magical no hitters/perfect games that ever occurred. Consider that it was Yogi's long awaited return to Yankee Stadium, Don Larsen was also there and had thrown out the first pitch to Yogi, Cone was 36 years old, it was Torre's birthday and he had witnessed the only other perfect games in Yankees history (Larsen's and Wells'). It was the 18th (Larsen's number) and he threw 88 pitches (Yogi's number being 8). It was also the first game Larsen had attended in person with the intent to watch the whole game since he retired. Joltin' Joe had died that year placing a coincidental number 5 on Cone's sleeve (Larsen's perfect game was game 5). I could go on and on with the meaningless coincidences of this game.
I met David Cone on the subway yesterday coming back from the Yankees game! We talked about the game and his career. He autographed my glove "David Cone P.G. 7.18.99" It was officially the best day of my life. Such a great guy!
Mark Gatti Cone's leadership/talent/intelligence make it hard not to like him. Kinda like how I'm a lifelong Yankees fan but I really respect and admire Mookie Betts.
Cone one my favorite all time. Few pitchers had his command, speed, and I.Q. Any time he was pitching on national tv, I had to cancel my plans and watch.
Ah, Tino, how I love thee. My favorite Yankee still to this day. He was always about the team and respected the Yankee uniform. Team players are always the best players.
That he did this with Larsen and Berra in attendance celebrating Larsen's perfect game is almost unbelivable. The odds of this happening do not happen. That is Yankees history for you and that is the aura of that beautiful stadium.
When David Wells pitched his perfect game in 1998, Cone buried himself in his jacket, being even more silent and poker-faced than even Joe Torre. 14 months later, he cashes in on his karma. Not to mention, this was the first interleague perfect game since Don Larsen's World Series perfect game.
Have to admit. I got choked up rewatching the final out. Coney is my favorite pitcher of all time, his repertoire, his change of speeds, his arm angles, his craftiness, and that NASTY slurve. That look of disbelief with his hand on his head, just so much emotion. LOVE IT!
Greatest game I ever saw, hands down. My dad and I went down to the stadium for Yogi Berra Day, Don Larsen throwing out the first pitch? I swear, Yogi's luck rubbed off on everyone. I never saw a no hitter in person up to that point. It was fucking great. Gotta wonder what it cost David, though. He was never the same after this game, I really think that coming back into the game and finishing after the rain delay fucked up his arm. To think, I was...and am a mets fan. and I went fucking nuts after the ball was caught. First time we ever sat field level. We managed to get a great shot of Coney falling to his knees, despite the schmuck sitting in front of us. Hands down, I rate 7/18/1999 as one of the top ten best days of my life. No shit. Despite the mini panic attack I had during the thunderstorm.
Seeing Davud Cone drop to his knees after that last out was made, Yankees fan or not, if that doesn't touch your heart, then chances are, you probably don't have one...
Comment sections in baseball videos are always bound to have at least one irritating scumbag looking for attention. Sometimes I try to show them up, and demonstrate how obnoxious and toxic they sound, sometimes by immitating them. XD
I was born in 53 and from that time to now this team has been amazing, the only thing I would change if I could is 2011. It was something NY needed at the time.
I think you mean 2001. But yes, I really wish we'd won that series. Having been born and raised in the Bronx, enrolled at NYU, and actually in lower Manhattan on 9/11, I was so sad we didn't win.
That Yankees dynasty in the 90s was ridiculous, featuring a three-peat, 4 out if world series wins, a 125 win season, a no hitter by Doc in 1996, a perfect game by Wells in 1998 and Cone's perfecto in 1999. Amazing.
I miss that era. Yankees qualifying ,in 98,as the greatest team in history, even better than 27 yanks, 61 yanks and 76 reds. And those home run rally's going on in the national league with the steroid era, bonds, sosa and Mcguire,was the greatest eras of baseball ever. 96-03. 3 of the greatest 5 starters in history, Martinez, Johnson and Maddux and baseballs greatest reliever,Rivera.
Thank's for the post, it was the next best thing to being there. A Yankee fan since '61, a kid living in L.A. I didn't get many chances to watch the Yankee's play. Thank God for MLB.
So many players I like playing in this game.Jeter,O’Neill,Williams,Vladdy Sr and Jose Vidro.Pretty crazy how they kind of knew where the Expos were going to move to almost 6 years before it even happened.
There seemed to be some sort of magic at Baseball's Cathedral, which I miss a lot. This day was an awesome example: It was Yogi Berra Day. Don Larsen threw the first pitch to Berra (they are the only pitcher and catcher tandem to work a perfect game in the postseason so far, en route to a World Series Championship for the Yankees that year). It was Joe Torre's birthday. Cone, of course, threw a perfect game. And the Yankees won. Just a splendid, perfect day!
It's nothing like playing or being a fan of the Yankees nothing. This was a perfect day twice for Cone and Yogi plus they were the champs and repeated in 1999. Picture & Pitcher Perfect Day Twice. I love the Yankees.
I remember this day clear as day. We dropped off my older sister to her first sleep away camp and listened to the first half of the game on the way home. Put it up on the TV when we got home and will never forget the ending. Luckily we taped the game and still have a copy of the VHS somewhere. Thank you for posting it.
Game was played on Yogi Berra Day, the first time Berra xset foot inside Yankee Stadium since George Steinbrenner fired him as Yankees manager in 1985. With him yhat day was Don Larsen, who pitched his own perfect game against the Brooklyn Dodgers in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series. Larsen shook Cone's hand before the game. Obviously it worked because Cone pitched his own perfect game.
Yep. Tried watching on the TV but with the audio on the video so low, had to put the volume all the way up. Needless to say I didn't continue watching. This is from MLB, not sure why they couldn't edit this out.
What's interesting listening to this broadcast is there was nearly zero commentary later and later on. With McCarver and Bobby Murcer probably not wanting to jinx it the almost dead silence between pitches added such a level of drama.
What a magical year of baseball it was in the Bronx. The Yanks went on to win the World Series later this year by sweeping the Braves and further cementing their legacy as the team of the century.
wow, what a treat! thank you so much for uploading this terrific video. yes, not my favorite announcers, either, but they did okay. and coney did perfect!
Greatest day with 11 year old daughter EVER.! May 17th 1998 - 15th perfect game to date. While waiting in line for nosebleed seats; a couple approached us and said they were to meet with friends 45 minutes earlier but could not find them. They said rather than giving tickets to drunkards, they'd prefer sitting next to us. 8th row, catered, right behind Yankees dugout. Could anyone ask for more? It was Yogi Berra Day (BB card & special pin). Don Larson thru 1st pitch to Yogi. I told daughter they were last to pitch a Yankee Perfect Game. She really had no idea how important & few Perfect Games in baseball history to that point. Too bad Our hosts left during 7th inning stretch. In the 8th inning a bouncing line drive to Chuck Knoblauch; he was ready to fire the ball at 1st base- he took a double step & simply tossed it. While Chuck held the ball u could've heard a pin drop in the black seat section; as he toss it to 1st the entire stadium released their breath simultaneously as cheers and laughter announced the sigh of relief... 24 up - 24 down. The 9th inning was extremely exciting only because no one dear make a sound with each pitch but the stadium roared with each of the last 3 outs... On our way home we attempted to figure out how many games were played throughout history that were not perfect & she understood the difference between a PERFECT GAME & a no hitter by the time we were home. Can a father have a better outing with his 11 year old daughter ?? 2021-1998- 23 full years later, she's 34 and I sometimes still hear her boasting to her husband, the kids and both their friends. I still have my pin but she has the ticket stubs, her pin & Yogi Berra lifetime achievement BB card... It's fantastic holding a memory like it was yesterday, opposed to other hurtful memories like what came just 3 years later. THANK YOU TO THAT COUPLE WHO GAVE US THE TICKETS.... I WISH U WOULD HAVE STAYED THE LAST 2½ INNINGS. IF U ever read this I hope you'll understand how special a day u gave us... A GREAT Memory to last a lifetime between a father and daughter... & YES, we still get along like magic. THANK YOU
Pretty sure Coney’s father and brother were watch from the stands. Such a gamer on a team chock full of em. An absolutely unparalleled period of life as a sports fan.
What’s make Cone’s game more remarkable is that this era - late 1990s to middle 2000s - was high-scoring compared to the periods preceding and following. As an illustration, during the 2000 MLB season, no no-hitter - let alone perfect game - was pitched, along with 2005 the only such season in the past three decades.
A perfectly pitched game? How about a perfect Yankees baseball team? No egos. No superstars (yet). Just 9 good players having great seasons and playing as a unit. The Yanks may not have been the most overpowering team of its era but they had class, good sportsmanship, many players in their playing-prime, and lots and lots of spirit.
I was at this game. Before the game started, Cone was warming up in the bullpen and I shouted "Hey, Conehead, you ought to toss a perfect game today!" and he stopped throwing, looked at me with a thoughtful glance, smiled, and said "I think I will." At the seventh inning stretch, Cone found out where I was sitting and he had me sent down to the Yankees dugout. He said "Man, I don't know if I can do it. My arm feels like it is going to fall off." I took his hand, looked into his eyes, and said "David, you CAN do this! Believe in yourself!" Then I poked him in the belly like the Pillsbury Doughboy and he chuckled. After the game, he gave me the baseball from the last out. Then I went out to the parking lot and flew home on my magical dragon named Snuffy. True story.
Derek Jeter should have easily won the AL Mvp in 1999. Peak of his natural athleticism at SS and the basepaths....and just like this game showed he was turning on pitches and showing some nice pop all year....24 HRs and nearly 100 rbi and needless to say had a great average. Best player, on the best team, at the most important position outside of possibly catcher...He should have won the MVP.
My family had tickets to this game. My mother lost them that day. Yep, my dad and I missed a perfect game. I was only two, I wouldn't have remembered, but my father never let it go. Every time there is a near perfect game he can't stand to watch it, until Felix Hernandez pitched one on my birthday.
I was at this game with my now-wife and a couple of friends (upper deck, third base side). Honest, no joke, no magic dragons involved. THE most tense game I have ever been too. Crazy stuff. Still can't believe I was there. =)
Their pitching was pretty bad, but they had a decent offense with Guerrero, Vidro, Cabrera and White. They were far from the worst offense in the Majors that year, so you have to give credit to Cone on this one.
My family went to David Well's perfect game for my brothers birthday in 98 and this one for my birthday in 99. I'm probably one of the few people in the world to have been at 2 perfect games... Will remember for the rest of my life awesome moments
James Schwarz wow
Joe Torre witnessed all three perfect games in Yankees history (one of which was the only perfect game in World Series history).
Ahad Nazir chaudhary Dude, relax.
Not true. I went to Dallas Braden and Matt Cain's perfect games
Amazing. I watched this game in its entirety. For Wells game I was sleeping because I used to work nights at the time. I woke up in order to start getting ready for work. I think it was the 8th inning when I started watching. Amazing time to be a yankees fan.
This is still the only Major League no-hitter in which the pitcher (Cone) never had a single 3 ball count. Absolutely amazing and I doubt that will ever be done again.
+marc80s That's not quite accurate. I know that in Tom Browning's perfect game he never went to a three ball count to any batter.
1981lashlarue Are you serious? Wow...it was done TWICE??
+marc80s Yep. At least twice.
Whatever the case, this is one of the most magical no hitters/perfect games that ever occurred. Consider that it was Yogi's long awaited return to Yankee Stadium, Don Larsen was also there and had thrown out the first pitch to Yogi, Cone was 36 years old, it was Torre's birthday and he had witnessed the only other perfect games in Yankees history (Larsen's and Wells').

Also ironically el presidente did against the Dodgers in 90

I call BS. Cone don't need to take no stinkin' subway
@@joeambrose3260 he's from Jersey.
It's nice to watch a game that doesn't have an ad in between every pitch. I miss the 90's
Errr this is edited for TH-cam obviously....
Errr I'm not talking about commercial breaks. Watch a Red Sox broadcast and you'll know what I'm talking about. It's brutal...
@@JeffMonkman Ya got that right. :)
@@JeffMonkman that is definitely not what happens you are over exaggerating to the extreme
David Cone was one of my favorite pitchers. And this is comin from a Red Sox fan
Mark Gatti Cone's leadership/talent/intelligence make it hard not to like him. Kinda like how I'm a lifelong Yankees fan but I really respect and admire Mookie Betts.
I'm in the same boat. Pedro is one of my favorites. That dude was just filthy shutting down these lineups.
He pitched for the Sox too at the end of his career.
Cone one my favorite all time. Few pitchers had his command, speed, and I.Q. Any time he was pitching on national tv, I had to cancel my plans and watch.
17 years ago, still feels like yesterday...
Ah, Tino, how I love thee. My favorite Yankee still to this day. He was always about the team and respected the Yankee uniform. Team players are always the best players.
I was at this game. I was about 12 years old. It was awesome. Enjoying the nostalgia watching it. Thanks for posting it.
That he did this with Larsen and Berra in attendance celebrating Larsen's perfect game is almost unbelivable. The odds of this happening do not happen. That is Yankees history for you and that is the aura of that beautiful stadium.
Blah bla bla
And his father and brother in the stands.

I call BS, but if it floats your boat, dream on
David Cone didn't have an ERA higher than 3.82 in a single month until September of that year. September was his only bad month in 1999.
@DumontGamingCentral hey, you got stats. But you'll never convince me that the beginning of the end didn't start with this game.
Seeing Davud Cone drop to his knees after that last out was made, Yankees fan or not, if that doesn't touch your heart, then chances are, you probably don't have one...

Good times one of my favorite years in life. Miss those days
anyone else getting random loud static sound here and there, trying to listen to this game and all of sudden PHSHSHS
yeah it scared the piss out of my cat (named Yogi btw)
Yep. Tried watching on the TV but with the audio on the video so low, had to put the volume all the way up. Needless to say I didn't continue watching. This is from MLB, not sure why they couldn't edit this out.
yeah. Feels like I'm watching Poltergeist.
Why is the sound so low?
Me, too. The first time scared the hell out of me.
What's interesting listening to this broadcast is there was nearly zero commentary later and later on. With McCarver and Bobby Murcer probably not wanting to jinx it the almost dead silence between pitches added such a level of drama.
BIG mouth McCarver was trying to jinx it several times, just like those 2 schmucks Kaat ( Wells ) and Sterling
@@joeambrose3260 I take it you're not a fan of the bunch?
I was at this game and I get goosebumps every time I think about it!!!! 20 years later, I got to meet him at my local shopping mall!!!
Everybody in the field praying The ball wasn't hit to them. Everybody except Jeter, He's ice cold.
my favorite pitcher of all time
What a magical year of baseball it was in the Bronx. The Yanks went on to win the World Series later this year by sweeping the Braves and further cementing their legacy as the team of the century.
I was there! 9 years old. What a day!
I remember watching this while visiting my grandparents, who lived on Long Island at the time. Really exciting to watch.
I was at this game for my 5th birthday. My first Yankee game ever. Amazing!
And you don't remember a thing, be honest
RIP Yogi
Boy was he ever a potent pick up by the Jays back in '92, and I'm sure for the Yankees as well in '95.
wow, what a treat! thank you so much for uploading this terrific video. yes, not my favorite announcers, either, but they did okay. and coney did perfect!
My word. I miss these Yankees.
perfect way to even be in the eye sight of yogi berra and don larsen where is the "bear" hug
RIP Don Larsen. Sad to see him go.
The look on Cashman's face after the final out says everything about the Yankees legendary GM.
Congratulations
David Cone's perfect game.... Couldn't happen to a better human being
funny how after this game his career spiraled down....he was never the same....an amazing performance
what legends are made of .
the glory days
agreed! He was our assistant coach at Maryland!
Greatest day with 11 year old daughter EVER.! May 17th 1998 - 15th perfect game to date.

1:42:20. It's amazing how history can be changed so easily by a matter of centimeters and milliseconds
18 years ago today!!!
Doc Gooden's no-hitter and David Cone's perfect game are 2 moments that really pissed off Mets fans like myself.
Pretty sure Coney’s father and brother were watch from the stands. Such a gamer on a team chock full of em. An absolutely unparalleled period of life as a sports fan.
88 pitches, 60 strikes. 10 strikeouts
The greatest perfect game ever ptiched. Too bad he hit an ugly downward spiral after this game
What’s make Cone’s game more remarkable is that this era - late 1990s to middle 2000s - was high-scoring compared to the periods preceding and following. As an illustration, during the 2000 MLB season, no no-hitter - let alone perfect game - was pitched, along with 2005 the only such season in the past three decades.
A perfectly pitched game? How about a perfect Yankees baseball team? No egos. No superstars (yet). Just 9 good players having great seasons and playing as a unit. The Yanks may not have been the most overpowering team of its era but they had class, good sportsmanship, many players in their playing-prime, and lots and lots of spirit.
I miss these teams..back when the Yankees scored runs and cared about winning...this current team is a joke... Loved David Cone...
These were the days...
I was at this game. Before the game started, Cone was warming up in the bullpen and I shouted "Hey, Conehead, you ought to toss a perfect game today!" and he stopped throwing, looked at me with a thoughtful glance, smiled, and said "I think I will." At the seventh inning stretch, Cone found out where I was sitting and he had me sent down to the Yankees dugout. He said "Man, I don't know if I can do it. My arm feels like it is going to fall off." I took his hand, looked into his eyes, and said "David, you CAN do this! Believe in yourself!" Then I poked him in the belly like the Pillsbury Doughboy and he chuckled. After the game, he gave me the baseball from the last out. Then I went out to the parking lot and flew home on my magical dragon named Snuffy. True story.
i was at this game too and this is a lie. there was no dragon in any of the parking lots on river avenue.
Joe Reiter Snuffy is invisible.
U got burned
you wrote the same exact thing on the page for david wells perfect game. weirdo.
Cool story bro! Guess what I was at the game too and he said that you sucked butt
RIP Yogi.
Derek Jeter should have easily won the AL Mvp in 1999. Peak of his natural athleticism at SS and the basepaths....and just like this game showed he was turning on pitches and showing some nice pop all year....24 HRs and nearly 100 rbi and needless to say had a great average.
Best player, on the best team, at the most important position outside of possibly catcher...He should have won the MVP.
Rest In peace, Mr. Larsen. 1:16:13
Rest in peace, Bobby and Tim.
Back in the day when a perfect game was huge news. Now it's buried in injury and tabloid news within 12 hours.
Damn it Cone! You and Doc broke our Met hearts! Why not us lol
Miss the vibe and atmosphere at the old stadium.
Even the postseason games these days feel dead at new Yankee Stadium
The hug and falling over is classic
The Netflix doc on Yogi Berra brought me here. #8
“Can’t happen, can it Susan?” It Happened! Lol
Cone always had wicked stuff. Once when he was a Met, he struck out the side on 9 pitches.
I've witnessed 17 perfect games, I swear. Can anyone explain ?
You watch bowling?
lolz@@williamshultz4620
GOD IS A YANKEES FAN
Montreal need to bring back the Expos.
Yankees: can you please get back to playing this way with the World Championships NOW!?!
As Yogi himself would have said, "Deja vu all over again."
The sad part is that this was Coney's apex....he struggled the remainder of his career. This was his last best game.
My family had tickets to this game. My mother lost them that day. Yep, my dad and I missed a perfect game. I was only two, I wouldn't have remembered, but my father never let it go. Every time there is a near perfect game he can't stand to watch it, until Felix Hernandez pitched one on my birthday.
Holy Shit dude .
I call BS
A true class act...David Come.
My husband and I were at David Cone perfect game. I had NO 😅idea it was a perfect game . So glad we were there
unbelievable how loud old yankee stadium was compared to the current stadium!
I was at this game with my now-wife and a couple of friends (upper deck, third base side). Honest, no joke, no magic dragons involved. THE most tense game I have ever been too. Crazy stuff. Still can't believe I was there. =)
Man I wish I read your comment before I posted mine.
Neither can I. Post tix and pix, then we'll talk. Maybe
The extremely loud static makes this impossible to watch in full.
Domingo German now joins David Cone David Wells and Don Larsen as the 4 Yankees to throw a perfect game
Liked Dave when he was with the Mets
key to a perfect game have don Larsen in the audience and shake the pitcher hand
Number 5 passed away ( Joe DiMaggio )
6:30 - Sadly Montreal never got that new Stadium.
Paul O'Neill was my favorite.
N they did technically move to northern Virginia, miles away in D.C
I was at this game, sitting by the left field foul pole. I hung a Yogi Bear sign on the facing of the upper deck for each strikeout. It was awesome.
Yeah right, keep dreaming
Word! Well said.
Man, that catch by Ricky Ledee for the second out in the 9th was really something! It's at 1:42:19.
demfan and O'Neal's heroic catch in te 1st
Knoblough had the play at second as well those three plays were key
No shit, Sherlocks
1:31:08 rip headphone users.
Yesssss!!!!
hope Montreal makes their return to MLB...Toronto is like the only Canadian team left
That game was incredible but I HATE interleague play! Still, Cone ruled that day.
SO. MUCH. AGREEMENT.
88 pitches 🔥🔥
Their pitching was pretty bad, but they had a decent offense with Guerrero, Vidro, Cabrera and White. They were far from the worst offense in the Majors that year, so you have to give credit to Cone on this one.
What a fast game!
agree 100%
will be very sad when mariano and derek retire.
