Abstract:
"Even the most ardent, die-hard Yankees fans have no idea of what really goes on behind closed doors in the inner sanctum of the Bronx Bombers. Sure, the fans read the back sections of the daily tabloids, all the sports blogs, and listen to the radio call-in sports shows 24/7, but in truth, the average fan isn't aware of the internal power politics that Yankees front-office executives confront on an everyday basis"-- Provided by publisher.
