Yankee for Life: My 40-Year Journey in Pinstripes

Yankee for Life is the story of Bobby Murcer’s career with the Yankees as both a player and an award-winning broadcaster. With humor and down-home charm, he shares dozens of fascinating, illuminating, and never-before-heard anecdotes about pals and former teammates, including Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle, Phil Rizzuto, and Thurman Munson. He also talks about his inspiring struggle against cancer after being diagnosed with a brain tumor on Christmas Eve 2006.

As he recalls his fight to survive, Murcer reflects on the family love and religious faith that carried him through. Surprising and funny, insightful and uplifting, this poignant memoir is an intimate look at baseball, family, and courage, told by a true Yankee for Life.
