For us NY Yankees fans, the 1949 season was a tremendous year, and a tremendous team. Besides Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra, Phil Rizzuto,
Allie Reynolds, Vic Raschi, etc....there was Joe Page's tremendous Relief performances and Johnny Lindell's (end of September) Playoff HR
in the 9th inning to beat the Red Sox for the American League Championship.
