<div>Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra will forever be remembered as much for his jovial nature and humorous malapropisms as for his three Most Valuable Player awards and numerous World Series rings. The Yankees’ beloved No. 8 passed away September 22, 2015 at the age of 90. A mainstay on the great Yankees teams of the 1940s, ’50s, and ’60s, Berra was an 18-time All-Star and the American League MVP in 1951, 1954, and 1955.  After retiring as a player, Berra managed both the Mets and Yankees and led the 1973 Mets to the National League pennant. Compiled and edited by legendary New York sportswriter Dave Anderson and including a foreword by Ron Guidry, one of Berra’s closest friends, this unique collection celebrates the life of an American original. Whether re-living Berra’s clutch home runs or telling the story behind “It ain’t over ’til it’s over,” this book is an extraordinary tribute to a beloved man.</div>

<div>After 20 major league seasons—all with the New York Yankees—Derek Jeter is hanging up his spikes at the conclusion of the 2014 campaign. The Yankees&#39; captain since 2003, the shortstop is considered the greatest Yankee of his generation. Jeter&#39;s Yankees teams won five World Series, including three in a row in 1998, 1999, and 2000. The all-time postseason leader in hits, doubles, and triples, Jeter earned the nickname &quot;Captain Clutch&quot; for his game-changing performances during the Yankees&#39; championship era. Through stories and powerful images from the pages of the <em>New York Times</em>, <em>Derek Jeter: Excellence and Elegance</em> celebrates the career of this New York icon from Jeter&#39;s debut in 1995 through his final game in 2014. This full-color pictorial keepsake also features an introduction by Tyler Kepner, the <em>Times’</em> award-winning baseball reporter.</div>
