Brother Michael is my main source for all things Baseball. He tells me that once Jeter ends his career the Yankees will retire his Number and ALL Yankee #'s from #1 thru #9 will be Retired. Which begs these Questions...
- Can you name the Yankees that wore #'s One thru Nine? and...
- Can you name the Phillies that have worn One thru Nine?
And...why don't the Phillies wear a Jersey that says PHILADELPHIA?
- PUT PETE IN THE HALL!@#$%^&*()!@#$@!!
and finally...as you can see, "My sister had a Pony, I had a Pony... we all had Ponies..." (Seinfeld)
