Raves and Reviews
Like VH1 tracking down all those old rock singers, Jensen has sought out dozens of former New York Yankee baseball players, reminding us that 1,200 men have worn the Yankee pinstripes and about a third of them are still alive. If you're a Yankee fan, there's a certain pleasure in finding out how all these guys are spending their days.
– GraceAnn A. DeCandido, Booklist
Those looking for a change of pace from the usual parade of Yankees books may find just what they're looking for in this what-ever-happened-to collection.
– David Plaut, USA Today Sports Weekly
Brian jensen profiles more than fifty former Bronx Bombers, from the famous to the obscure. All have extraordinary moments to recount, simply for having worn the pinstriped uniform of the most successful franchise in sports history.
– Foreword Reviews
Every former player has a story to tell, and Jensen gives his subjects a wide berth. It's an effective tactic and makes for yet another charming book on former Yankees.
– Tampa Tribune
With such an obscure cast of characters, there are enough oddball facts in Jensen's pages to fill many a rain delay and fuel endless barroom conversations. If you're a true Yankees geek—and there are plenty out there—you wil feast on the information in this Who's Who of half-remembered (and in some cases forgotten) players.
– Publishers Weekly
Yes, there is life after playing for the Yankees.
– Library Journal
Players don't just disappear when they leave a particular team. They have lives after baseball, as Jensen reveals in profiling dozens of former Yankees, from doctors Bobby Brown and Doc Medich to preacher Lindy McDaniel.
