On the day of major league baseball’s mid-summer classic in Anaheim, CA, jeremiahboyce.com brings you sad news. After turning 80 on July 4th, George Steinbrenner went to Yankee heaven. He is not the only Yankee to pass on in the last seven days. Steinbrenner joins Bob Shephard, the venerable voice of Yankee Stadium. Rest in peace, George. We will remember you as a C-H-A-M-P! Baseball will miss you, and I will also miss you. You displayed so much fire and passion toward your Yankee team “family”. You made Yankee Stadium “your house”–the house that George built.
