Two things you have probably never seen and will never hear again will happen, Bob Sheppards "now batting for the yankees.... #2 derek jeter.... #2." As well as the final single digit yankee number ever announced for an active player. Players can become legends anywhere, but in nyc legends stand tall.

That is because there are 8 players that had there numbers retired two of them with the same number. Torre is number six his will be retired. Wow the last of the single digits. They retired Billy Martins number 1 that is a real legend.
