NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — They walked in from left-center field one by one, starting with Jorge Posada and ending with John Wetteland.
As the New York Yankees turned toward youth this weekend, they also honored their past Saturday when the 1996 World Series championship team returned for a 20th anniversary celebration.
On a busy weekend in the Bronx, the Yankees followed Alex Rodriguez’s finale Friday night with a 30-minute tribute. The loudest cheers were for Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera, who will return Sunday for the dedication of Rivera’s plaque in Monument Park.
