Why the
Yankees? Players need to have miles of heart to make
it in the Big Apple. They need to crave the pressure,
literally thrive on it, because they know the privilege of
putting on the pinstripes and playing in "The House that
Ruth Built" is never to be taken lightly. It is their
commitment to excellence that has made them an American
tradition. The Pinstripe Press is also featured on Baseball-Almanac.com, the BEST baseball information source on the Internet. This site is rich with facts, stories, famous firsts, quotes, autographs, stats, records, and other information not readily found on commercial sites. I am proud to be associated with such a valuable resource as a researcher, contributor and Yankees Message Board moderator. Check it out! Yankees e-newsletter. I am attempting to publish an e-newsletter (text only) dedicated to baseball's most storied franchise. I am looking for some wannabe writers out there who would be interested in working on a monthly publication next season. Whatever you want to contribute. Your words and your ideas! Voice your opinion, promote your own website and/or sell your memorabilia. Sources
for the Pinstripe Press include: The Encyclopedia of Baseball, A
Pictorial History of Baseball, The Baseball Almanac, The
Sporting News, America's Game, The National Baseball Hall Of
Fame, Baseball - The Early Years - The Fabulous Fifties -
The Modern Era, Baseball's 100 Greatest Players, The
Baseball Anthology - more to come |
