NEW YORK -- With 27 World Series championships, any list constrained to the five best seasons in Yankees history is incomplete by definition. It’s an impossible task, one destined to leave behind years deeply imprinted in the hearts of fans. Still, we’ll attempt it here. The most fair approach may

Without Andy Pettitte’s guidance, CC Sabathia can’t say for certain his phone would have rung on a Tuesday evening early in 2024, informing the left-hander that he had been selected as a first-ballot inductee to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Attempting to pick the Top 10 moments in Yankees history guarantees disagreement and debate. Ask 10 fans at the corner of 161st Street and River Avenue, and it’s a near-certainty that you’ll walk away with 10 different lists. That said, this one is mine. After covering the Yankees for nearly
