inothernews:

17 years.

1,954 games.

1,664 hits.

1,065 runs batted in.

275 home runs.

In the playoffs 16 out of 17 seasons.

Four World Series rings.

And a symbol of class. Diana Munson, widow of Yankee captain Thurman Munson, thanked Jorge for “bringing me back to baseball.”

Thanks for everything, Jorge.
