For seventeen seasons, the name Jorge Posada was synonymous with Yankees baseball. Jorge worked tirelessly to become their star catcher, establishing himself as one of the greatest Yankees of all time. Now, Jorge shares a remarkable account of his journey to Yankee Stadium. He looks back, going inside friendships forged on the field and explaining how?as part of the Core Four?he helped to reestablish the Yankees as a dynasty. Going beyond his all-star career, Jorge digs into his cultural roots to illuminate the bond he shares with his father, who escaped Cuba and helped to mold his son into a ballplayer to fulfill his childhood dream of playing in the Bronx. Complete with sixteen pages of color photographs, this touching and earnest memoir is a testament to hard work, brotherhood, and the generational gift of baseball between fathers and sons.
