In the emotionally charged period following the tragedy of 9/11, the New York Yankees provided a welcome bit of relief for their grieving city by taking the 2001 American League pennant. The team came up short in the seven-game World Series that followed, however, falling in defeat to the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Yankees did come within two outs of becoming the first club in more than 40 years to record four consecutive championships.
34 members of the 2001 American League champion New York Yankees have signed this Official 2001 World Series Allan H. Selig baseball. Hall of Fame manager Joe Torre signed his name on the sweet spot. Other signatures include Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera, Derek Jeter, Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, Tino Martinez, Paul O’Neill, Alfonso Soriano, Jorge Posada, Scott Brosius and several others. This baseball comes with a LOA from JSA (X08723).
