Offered here is this champagne bottle that was used in the Yankees Clubhouse celebration following the Yankees 2012 AL East Championship, the final AL East title of the “Core Four” Era. Andy Pettitte is the NY Yankees all time franchise pitching leader in strikeouts and games started. Pettitte also holds the MLB record for most career postseason wins of any pitcher ever at 19. He won the most games of any MLB starting pitcher during the 2000-2009 decade. The Yankees will retire his jersey number 46 during this upcoming season. Derek Jeter is the Yankees all time career leader in hits (3,465), doubles (544), games played (2,747), stolen bases (358), times on base (4,716), plate appearances (12,602) and at bats (11,195). He is a certain 1 ballot MLB HOFer and the Yankees will retire his number 2 jersey this upcoming season as well. What better way to celebrate these two legends together than this opened and signed champagne bottle. MLB has authenticated this with their hologram: EK278813, Steiner Sports hologram: 188840 and Tri-Star hologram: 7559439.
