Synopsis
In the nearly 120-year history of the New York Yankees, fans have been treated to countless firsts--the first Yankee to hit a home run in the original Yankee Stadium (Babe Ruth), the first to hit a homer in the current stadium (Jorge Posada), the first Cy Young Award winner (Bob Turley), the first to hit for the Triple Crown (Lou Gehrig), and the first to amass 3,000 hits (Derek Jeter). The list goes on. In New York Yankees Firsts, Howie Karpin presents the stories behind the firsts in Yankees history in question-and-answer format. More than a mere trivia book, Karpin's collection includes substantive answers to the question of "who was the first . . . ?" on a variety of topics, many of which will surprise even seasoned fans of the Bronx Bombers., In the nearly 120-year-history of the New York Yankees, fans have been treated to countless firsts--the first Yankee to hit a home run in the original Yankee Stadium (Babe Ruth), the first to hit a homer in the current stadium (Jorge Posada), the first Cy Young Award winner (Bob Turley), the first to hit for the Triple Crown (Lou Gehrig), and the ......, In the nearly 120-year-history of the New York Yankees, fans have been treated to countless firsts--the first Yankee to hit a home run in the original Yankee Stadium (Babe Ruth), the first to hit a homer in the current stadium (Jorge Posada), the first Cy Young Award winner (Bob Turley), the first to hit for the Triple Crown (Lou Gehrig), and the first to amass 3,000 hits (Derek Jeter).

    Only packaged in an unpadded satchel. Despite, the item actually arrived in good condition as described. Ran into an issue, contacted the seller via listing and received an automated response where they clearly did not read my message. Competitive pricing. ⭐⭐⭐

    I had an excellent experience with this purchase. The item arrived quickly and was exactly as described—if not better. It was a very good price for this book. It was carefully packaged, showing great attention to detail and care. Communication was smooth throughout the process, and everything went perfectly from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend this seller and would gladly do business with them again. Highly satisfied!
