SteveI was at a few games that stand out.
1986 Game 6 of the playoffs vs the Astros, Mets won in 11th inning I believe.
1991 or 92 Jim Abbott No hitter vs Cleveland.
1998 David Wells tosses a perfect game vs Twins
1999 Pedro Strikes out 17 Yankees retiring the last 26 in a row (or something like that)
2001 David Cone throws Perfect game vs Expos on Yogi Berra day.
The 86 game and 91 game were tix given to me by friends, for the Abbott game we sat in Billy Joels box, so we were feet from the field. Or at least I was told they were his.
From 1996 thru 2002 I had what the Yanks sold as a Sunday plan, and luckilly both Perfect games were thrown on a Sunday.
In 1999 we decided on a whim to go to the game, sat in right field at the wall and saw Pedro
mow down the Yankees.
If I had to pick one from the above I think it would be the Abbott No Hitter. Whenever it plays on Yankees classics when they go to commercial we can see ourselves.
