Commemorate the End of a Baseball Cathedral




Just think of all the great history that occured here....all the hits and homeruns that TED WILLIAMS had here, where Carlton Fisk won many battles with Thurman Munson, where Johnny Damon had those great homeruns in the 2004 ALCS and where the RED SOX clinched the AL CHAMPIONSHIP in 2004, and where many more great RED SOX moments might occur this season !!

To commemorate Yankee Stadium's Final Season, The Highland Mint has released the following limited edition collectibles!

Even if you're not a Yankee Fan, this stadium is one of the oldest and is considered the most famous cathedral in baseball history!
