Went to game 4 with 3 best friends from high school. One had his drivers license for about a month. I had an awful ear infection. Guy sitting behind us, aggressive ‘maybe mafia’ guy, laughing his rear and off saying ‘you boys should have been here in 96, braves fan in upper deck mouthed off, we threw him down face first onto the concrete concourse, they had to take him out in a stretcher! We threw our beer on him. Hahaha!’….(terrifying man), then the Yankees clinched. Stadium went insane. We stuck around, Clemens came out wasted spraying champagne on the fans around the dugout. We got back to parking lot with 16 year old new driver and 55,000 trashed Yankee fans, and one buddy decided to stand on the roof of the car and surf, as an awful billy Joel parody ‘the Yankees are on fire’ blared on the radio…..amazing night/memory.
One of my favorite teams of all time. I grew up and got into sports watching The Yankees from 1996 on with my grandpa but I specifically remember this year and World Series.
After the second game of the 1996 series a reporter from an Atlanta newspaper wrote that the Yankees didn't belong on the same field as the Braves. He went on to write that maybe the 1927 and the 1961 teams didn't either. I wonder what he had to say after the Yanks came back to win that series in 6 games and sweep the Braves in this series.
This was the peak of that Yankees dynasty. They ran over the other best team of the 90s like they weren't there. Beating those Braves teams like that wasn't an easy thing to do.
@ vr 81 - Unfortunately, winning 14 division titles only allowed the Braves (until very recently ) to be not just bad, but ROTTEN in the postseason, just rotten . . .
Watching the Yankees I grew up playing ball in 159 and Grand Concourse in the back drop of the dynasty dreaming one day dreaming of donning the pinstripes those were fun days I tell ya
@Bread And Circuses What really made the Yankees dynasty from 1995-2004 so successful was that they got so many late inning clutch home runs (whether they won the series or not). Its just unreal how many clutch home runs they got in the postseason from 1995-2004. And of course, having a sensational bullpen with Mariano leading the way.

The Yankees should never have gotten rid of Joe Torre!

that el duque slider was nasty
A year after going hitless with he San Diego Padres, Jim Leyritz redeems himself by hitting a home run for the Yankees in 1999.
Best childhood ever.
Fun Fact: At this time, Jim Leyritz was only the 3rd player in MLB history to play back-to-back World Series for both the NL and AL.

El Duque is as my favorite pitcher watching this team when I was a kid. Pettitte second!
Unstoppable. Joe Morgan hated the yanks. He swore that lame ass big red machine crap was better. They werent
Let’s go Yankees! Best franchise in sports history!
El Duque game 1 = 7 innings, one run, one hit, 10 strikeouts
Cone game 2 = 7 innings, one hit, no runs
Clemens game 4 = Almost 8 innings, one run

Although the record doesn’t say it, I think these team was even better than ‘98
'98 was far better after winning 114 games during the season. They were the best team since Murderer's Row.
it says 1999 but the video looks like 1979
