Honoring The Boss

Purchased the New York Yankees on January 3, 1973.

A true visionary who changed the game of baseball forever,

he was considered the most influential owner in all of sports.

In his 37 years as Principal Owner, the Yankees posted a Major League-best .566 winning percentage,

while winning 11 American League pennants and seven World Series titles,

becoming the most recognizable sports brand in the world.

A devoted sportsman, he was Vice President of the United States Olympic Committee, a member of  the Baseball Hall of Fame’s Board of Directors and a member of the NCAA Foundation Board of Trustees.

A great philanthropist whose charitable efforts were mostly performed without fanfare, he followed a personal motto of the greatest form of charity is anonymity.
