After 85 glorious seasons the House That Ruth Built will close forever. But you can relive the classic contests that define the legendary stadium with this indispensable DVD collection.

SteelBook™

It is arguably the most famous stadium in the world. From its distinctive arched frieze to the bold blue letters on its façade, from its Monument Park to its 14-story Louisville Slugger™, it is instantly recognizable as the House That Ruth Built. But the things that make this monument to America's pastime so important to sports fans everywhere, what we remember, are the games. Specifically, the essential games contested on this hallowed grass field that stand out as defining moments in Yankees history, baseball history, our history.

This six-DVD set showcases six television broadcasts of games that shaped the mystique of this fabled baseball cathedral. Selected by Yankees.com readers, these outstanding games mark glorious chapters in the history of the franchise. This six-game celebration salutes everything that is quintessentially Yankees and 100% baseball.

These are the SIX ESSENTIAL GAMES OF YANKEE STADIUM:

  • 1976 ALCS GAME 5 VS. KANSAS CITY ROYALS: Chris Chambliss' walk-off home run sends the Yankees to their first World Series since 1964.
  • 1977 WORLD SERIES GAME 6 VS. LOS ANGELES DODGERS: Reggie Jackson's historic three-home-run-game propels the Bronx Bombers to another World Series Championship.
  • 1995 ALDS GAME 2 VS. SEATTLE MARINERS: This 15-inning drama ended with Jim Leyritz's walk-off home run and featured home runs from Don Mattingly, Paul O'Neill, and Ruben Sierra. With 3 &1/3 innings in relief by a young Mariano Rivera who notched the win.
  • 1996 WORLD SERIES GAME 6 VS. ATLANTA BRAVES: After New York lost the first two games of the 1996 World Series, they won the next four and finished with a Game 6-celebration that shook Yankee Stadium with delight.
  • 2001 WORLD SERIES GAME 4 VS. ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS: History unfolded when Tino Martinez hit a 2-out, bottom of the 9th, two-run homer to tie the game. Then in the 10th, "Mr. November" Derek Jeter's game-winning home run ended another remarkable victory.
  • 2003 ALCS GAME 7 VS. BOSTON RED SOX: With a World Series appearance at stake, aces on the mound, and white knuckles everywhere, Aaron Boone stroked the game-winning home run to seal the Yankees' 11-inning victory.

And these great DVD bonuses complete the collection:

  • Chris Chambliss on his 1976 ALCS Game 5 home run
  • Ron Guidry 18 Ks (June 17, 1978)
  • First game after Thurmon Munson died, Bobby Murcer hits the game-winner (August 6, 1979)
