How 2009 Yanks overcame rabid Philly fans: ‘Like when Rocky went into Russia’

In their new book, “Mission 27,” Mark Feinsand and Bryan Hoch take readers inside the legendary Bronx Bomber team that won the franchise’s 27th world title in 2009.

PROSPECT SPOTLIGHT
Tyler Nunez, a C from Lake Nona HS, is a 6'2 190lb athletic catcher who provides strength with the bat and glove. During BP, Tyler stuck with a middle of the field approach while staying on a line.

He is a good looking athletic uncommitted catcher to keep an eye on.
