Baseball Quote by Harry Enten

“The Yankees were the dominant team of the 20th century. They won more World Series than I care to count, though I'm sure your Yankee fan friend can tell you that it's more than stars in the sky. Yet, it wasn't until the 1920s when the Yankees began their run of World Series victories.” quote by Harry Enten
