⚾️On August 11, 1973 during the Old Timers' Game played on the 50th anniversary of Yankee Stadium, Mickey Mantle homers off his old Yankees teammate, Whitey Ford. After launching a shot that lands foul in the upper deck, Mantle sends the southpaw's next pitch over the fence, much to the delight of the large crowd gathered for the festivities. The event brought in some 65 former Yankees, representing at least 1 player from each of the 50 previous seasons.⚾️ #TheMick #TheCommerceComet | Davenport
