New York Yankees retire C.C. Sabathia’s number 52—has the Bronx Bombers’ legacy of greatness entered a new chapter? Sully unpacks the passionate debate about retired numbers, comparing Sabathia’s impact to legends like Reggie Jackson and Thurman Munson. Does Sabathia’s Hall of Fame-caliber performance, ALCS MVP honor, and World Series win justify his jersey joining Monument Park?

The show also explores the untold story of Jackie Robinson’s first manager, franchise moves involving the St. Louis Browns, Boston Braves, and the birth of the Baltimore Orioles. Key insights cover how historical decisions shaped the modern MLB landscape, why some numbers are immortalized, and who might be next. With engaging trivia on future World Series MVPs and a lively discussion on what makes a Yankee great, this episode is a must-listen for fans obsessed with baseball history and the evolving legends of the game.
