Yankee Stadium: 'Memories'
Berkow
\ NEA Sports Editor
World of Yesterdays
N E W Y 0 R K-(NEA)- '
Manny’s Baseball Land has !
been operated for the past i
18 years at 838 River Ave. j
here, across the street from j
that storied, white sandstone ;
institution called Yankee;
Stadium.
Aside from autographed 1
baseballs, caps, pennants '
and yellow foghorns, Manny i
Koenigberg’s livelihood de
pends largely on the sale of
pictures, large and small, of
major league players, past
and present.
Know whose picture Mr.
Koenigberg sells most fre
quently? Babe Ruth’s. Know
who’s second? Lou Gehrig’s, j
And third? Ty Cobb’s.
And What about today’s
Yankees? Know who is the
best-selling New York player
this season? Mickey Mantle.
“He's the most popular
player, even if he's out
now.” Manny says. “There’s
no one to take his place.”
Everywhere, the ashes of
nostalgia are scattered to
cover the unseemly present.
Like an aging woman in
heavy velvet, Yankee Sta
dium wears yesterday’s
glory all too obviously.
Inside, the never-changing,
pin-striped New York uni
form is practically the same
model Ruth wore. The old
Yanks were an ideal, per
fected. How could you im
prove on the Yankees? And
yet, the tombstone-shaped
monuments in deep center
field here give the stadium
a proper atmosphere these
days—the atmosphere of a
graveyard.
The ghostly shadows of
Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio and
others leap in all directions.
One looks at the infield
grass on the right side of the
pitcher's mound and thinks
not of second baseman Hor
ace Clark. One looks and
thinks of Billy Martin, div
ing to save a World Series

or. perhaps, Yogi Berra hug
ging Don Larsen like a child
after a perfect game.
Out in right field, the spec
tators stand and reach up to
catch a home run ball by Joe
Pepitone. Yet, it is pigeon
toed Ruth we see waddling
around the bases.
Today’s Yankees live in a
world of yesterdays and
sometimes, it must be said,
they play like it. With Man
tle went the last of New
York’s super humans. The
Bronx Bombers are now a
low-caliber shell.
Nowadays, when they talk
about breaking up the Yan
kees they mean by 10-0.
The change, of course, has
been hard. It has been hard
for the players and manage
ment, especially men like
i Elston Howard. Tom Tresh
and Steve Hamilton — men
: who remember.
“We had this feeling,” said
a club official. “If we lost a
few games, we didn’t get ex
i cited. We figured we had the
best team in baseball. We
knew it was only a matter of
time.”
That feeling, however, has
long since drained away.
Now Yankee players speak
in awe of Baltimore’s power
and Detroit's pitching. No
body, but nobody, speaks in
awe of the Yanks.
Time has caught up with
the Yankees and their sta
dium. Now there is talk of
abandoning the House That
Ruth Built for a more mod
ern plant with better park
, ing facilities.
j If it was hard to imagine
the Dodgers without Ebbets
Field, try the Yankees with
out Yankee Stadium. Then
again, maybe it’s not so in
! conceivable.
After all. a World Series
i without the Yanks seemed
: strange a few years ago.
