Trying to pick the greatest New York Yankees team of all-time is not unlike selecting the most beautiful woman in all of recorded history: too many worthy candidates. That said this ball club with a then-record 114-48 record and 22-game edge against Boston in the American League East then efficiently roaring through the postseason including a four-game sweep of the San Diego Padres in the World Series can make a pretty good case for itself. Adding to the import the World Series win the teams 24th at that point in their incredible history was the second world title in a five-year span that would add four World Series crowns to the already remarkable list. This handsome ball an official MLB Selig 1998 World Series version boasts 21 signatures from a record-setting club with a roster including the likes of Bernie Williams Andy Pettitte Tino Martinez Paul ONeill David Cone David Wells Tim Raines Joe Girardi Orlando Hernandez Ramiro Mendoza Jeff Nelson Mike Stanton Homer Bush Luis Sojo Ricky Ledee Shane Spencer. Coaches Jose Cardenal Chris Chambliss Tony Cloninger and Mel Stottlemyre. Hall of Fame manager Joe Torre has signed on the sweet spot; an edition size of 44/98 is penned in the same ballpoint alongside the 1998 World Series logo trademark. The historic baseball from the Wyckoff Collection.
Pre-certified by PSA/DNA.
