Yankee Stadium Legacy: #76 John Wetteland


John Wetteland pitched just two seasons in the Bronx for the Yankees but the hard throwing right hander made his mark by recording 74 total saves during the 1995 and 1996 seasons. Wetteland also made a name for himself in New York with his seven saves during the 1996 postseason and eventual World Series. In that 1996 World Series against the Atlanta Braves Wetteland saved all four Yankees victories and was named the World Series Most Valuable Player.

76 days until Yankees Opening Day
