Yankees retiring CC Sabathia’s number shows the sad state of our standard for greatness

News RoomBy News RoomFebruary 28, 20261 ViewsNo Comments

If we listen closely, we can hear the grandfather, a lifelong Yankees fan, speaking to his grandson:

“Oh, yeah, so many memorable moments. Did I ever tell you that I was in Yankee Stadium the day they retired CC Sabathia’s number? Yeah, what a special moment!

“What was his number? Darned if I remember. It was one of those big ones, fifty-something. Or was that the number he wore during his eight years with Cleveland?”

Everything about Yankee Stadium — except ticket prices, parking fees, and the cost of eats and drinks — seems to be done on the cheap and the cheesy.
