It’s hard to believe that it’s been 15 years already, but on this day in 2008, the Yankees closed out a chapter of their rich history. That “chapter” was called Yankee Stadium and was filled with memories, pennants, World Series championships, no-hitters, perfect games, and all the achievements you can imagine.
It witnessed the rise and fall of many Yankees legends, including Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Whitey Ford, Roger Maris, Reggie Jackson, Ron Guidry, Don Mattingly, Derek Jeter, Andy Pettitte, Mariano Rivera, and dozens more.
It was a magical place that saw its final game on September 21, 2008.
