Whitey Ford just passed at age 91. He was the greatest starter in Yankees History and most World Series Wins ever.
The other “Chairman of the Board” has passed. Pretty much the last great Yankee of that era. Damn.
I saw him at many an Old Timers Game but never saw him pitch, he was before my time. A very colorful character too, a true Lefty.
16 years a Yank and 10 World Series Wins.
236-106 with a 2.75 ERA
Long Island native and lifetime Yankee Fan. He started just in time to play with Joe D.
