It was the beginning of a new era and new dynasty. I remember saying to myself, "Joe Torre, are you kidding me"? "That guy has never won anything." Doesn’t he have a losing track record, I said oh my gosh, come on guys, you could do better than that." Boy was I wrong, he brought the winning way back to Yankees…
