Legendary New York Yankee Willie Randolph tells the story of his life
playing and coaching for the most storied professional sports franchise
in the world, detailing his career on and off the field with some of
baseball biggest stars.
In his long-awaited memoir, Willie
Randolph shares stories from life in New York Yankee pinstripes, opening
up about the team that raised him and the city that molded him.
For
over thirty years, Randolph has been a part of Yankee lore and
mythology. From the best seat in the stadium he has witnessed the
greats, from Reggie Jackson to Don Mattingly to Derek Jeter;
larger-than-life managers, including Billy Martin and Joe Torre; and of
course The Boss himself. Randolph offers truly unique, firsthand insight
into some of the greatest players to ever play the game and the
greatest teams ever to call the Bronx their home.
But though
Randolph is a Yankee, he is first and foremost a quintessential New
Yorker. Brooklyn born and raised, he shares memories of his rise from
the projects to the house that Ruth built. Along the way he discusses,
his triumphs and struggles on the field and in the dugout, as well as
his time spent as manager of the Yankees' crosstown rivals, the Mets.
As
fascinating and thoughtful as Randolph himself, filled with sixteen
pages of black-and-white photos, The Yankee Way is a moving portrait of a
legendary team, a unique city, and a remarkable man.
