Welcome to This Week In Yankees Baseball! It was a night New York Yankees fans will never forget. And Paul O´Neill remembers it like it was yesterday.
“I hit it and it was like, ‘You did it,’ O´Neill said according to Pinstripe Alley. ¨It’s a weird feeling. It’s a good feeling. I even amazed myself… It’s a great thing, something I’ve never done before even hitting in my backyard during home run derby.” [related category]
It was August 31, 1995, and the Warrior was on the home run path. He was referring to the third of his three blasts against the California Angels that day.
