No one was more responsible for the Yankees' return to greatness in the mid-1990s like #51, center fielder Bernie Williams. He made a triumphant return before the final game ever played at Yankee Stadium Sunday night. Most players receive a homecoming welcome wearing an opposing team's uniform. That Bernie received the loudest & longest ovation of the evening wearing Yankees pinstripes is a perfect tribute for a man who brought class and karma to the only uniform he ever wore during his stellar 16-year career.

Bern Baby Bern! He's done it again!
It was real cool to watch that, very much like "Paul O Neill" that WE were part of at Game 5-2001.
Very cool
