I see the video is available used on Amazon. I am going to order a copy. I also loved the old record return to glory, the story of the 1977 Yankees, which was narrated by Phil Rizzuto. My grandfather gave me that record and I probably listened it to every day for a year. The Damon steal is definitely a classic play…and I had the same reaction. I was all set to fire off an angry post before I realized how brilliant the play was. [26] There was something so poignant about seeing those highlights set to the lyrics of that song.

Growing up, I used to watch this video called "The 10 Greatest Moments in Yankee History" and be so envious of the team's past. The video ended with a montage set to "Up Where We Belong", and it would really make me sad!
