Customer Reviews

The Year I Owned the Yankees

Wonderful read! The book was in excellent condition and promptly delivered. I was very satisfied with the purchase.

Funnier than "Bronx Zoo" and better written

I found this book to be funnier, better thought out and better written than "The Bronx Zoo". The ghost writer did a much better job of editing this book than was the case with that other book by Sparky Lyle. There are amusing anecdotes both real and imaginary in this book, and the plot line flows pretty naturally.

Lots of laughs

Sparky has a unique talent for mixing fiction with real sports figures.I passed this book around to my friends and we all enjoyed it!

The best Sports Fiction that I have ever read

Not only was he a great closer for the New York Yankees, Sparky Lyle spins the most hilarious yarn that I have ever read.For baseball fans, especially Yankee fans which I am not, this is a must-read. Rarely do I laugh out loud when I'm reading, but Sparky made me chuckle throughout the entire read.I'm waiting for Sparky's second fiction to come out.
