What did the Yankees being in the World Series mean to you?

can dang “I think the Yankees instilled in us a spirit to fight. Even though they lost the World Series - they didn’t go down without a fight. As New Yorkers we’ll continue to persevere no matter what.” rohit sharma “I personally am a Met fan but I admire the way the Yankees played the game. Even though they lost, it was exciting to watch them. They played like true New Yorkers.” ismael ramos “The Dodgers were my team until they moved out to California. This World Series was great and I was moved by the Yankees’ miraculous late wins in the 9th inning, twice.” don kirby “I’m a real Met fan and was glad to see that the team that was able to beat the Mets last year was good enough to make it to the Series. It was certainly one of the most exciting series I can remember.” rudy greco “The Yankees exemplify the spirit of New York City. They almost won the Series by batting only .187. They were gallant under fire like all New Yorkers.”
