Of all the New York Yankees championship teams, the 1947 club seemed the least likely. Bridging the gap between the dynasties of Joe McCarthy and Casey Stengel, the team, managed by Bucky Harris, was coming off three nonpennantwinning seasons and given little chance to unseat the defending American League champion Boston Red Sox. And yet, led by Joe DiMaggio, this unYankeeslike squad of rookies, retreads, and a few solid veterans easily won the pennant over the Detroit Tigers and the heavily favored Red Sox, along the way compiling an American Leaguerecord nineteengame winning streak. They then went on to defeat the Brooklyn Dodgers in a dramatic sevengame World Series that was the first to be televised and the first to feature an African American player.Bridging Two Dynasties commemorates this historic clubthe players, on the field and off, and the events surrounding their remarkable season. Along with player biographies, including those of future Hall of Famers DiMaggio, Bucky Harris, Yogi Berra, and Phil Rizzuto, the book features a seasonal timeline and covers pertinent topics such as the winning streak, the Yankees involvement in Leo Durochers suspension, and the thrilling World Series.
