3Two-star penalty for redundancy  Dec 24, 2008
This is a terrific set in terms of packaging and presentation, but I'm with the man who said that those games which are already available on DVD shold have been replaced. Personally, I would much rather have had Ron Guidry's 18Ks game in its entirety... and what about the Graig Nettles Show, a.k.a. Game 3 of the '78 Series? I'm glad to have this set for the previously unreleased games, but I object slightly to the repackages...still, these are the ones the fan voted for, and Vox publicum, vox dei, right?

5Great DVD Set!!!  Oct 03, 2008
This is a great set celebrating the greatest Yankees games in historic Yankee Stadium. Just being able to have "Donnie Baseball's" last game at the Stadium is awesome. What a game that was... The 1995 Division Series vs. Seattle where he hit .417 and who can forget the incredible two games of the 2001 WS vs. Arizona. Game 4 is here experience all the magic again from that night when Tino Martinez homers with two out in the ninth and Jeter wins it with his November magic. Reggie's three HR game from 1977 is also here as is Chris Chambliss' HR to win the 1976 pennant. If you're a true blue Yankee fan as myself this 6-disc set is for you. YANKEE STADIUM FOREVER!!!

4Best games in Yankee Stadium, but two of the games are already on DVD  Sep 08, 2008
Great games from the Stadium, quility is great and the special features are ok. Bottom line, I would replace the Mr. November game and Mr. October game since those games are already on DVD. But it's a "Must have" if your a yankee fan.

3Can't say that these would be MY choices:  Jul 25, 2008
...but these were the winners in the fan voting. So which games are included in this set? According to A&E, here is what we'll get (4 new releases + 2 previously released games):

1976 ALCS GAME 5 VS. KANSAS CITY ROYALS: Chris Chambliss' walk-off HR sends the Yankees to their first World Series since 1964.

1977 WORLD SERIES GAME 6 VS. LOS ANGELES DODGERS: "Mr. October" Reggie Jackson's historic three home run-game propels the Bronx Bombers to another World Series Championship. (Also available with 1977 World Series Set)

1995 ALDS GAME 2 VS. SEATTLE MARINERS: This 15-inning drama ended with Jim Leyritz's walk-off home run and featured home runs from Don Mattingly, Paul O'Neill, and Ruben Sierra. WIth 3 &1/3 innings in relief a young Mariano Rivera notched the win.

1996 WORLD SERIES GAME 6 VS. ATLANTA BRAVES: After New York lost the first two games of the 1996 World Series, they won the next four and finished with a Game 6-celebration that shook Yankee Stadium with delight.

2001 WORLD SERIES GAME 4 VS. ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS: History unfolded when Tino Martinez hit a 2-out, bottom of the 9th, two-run homer to tie the game. Then in the 10th, "Mr. November" Derek Jeter's game-winning home run ended another remarkable victory. (Also available with Yankees Fall Classic Collector's Edition)

2003 ALCS GAME 7 VS. BOSTON RED SOX: With a World Series appearance at stake, aces on the mound, and white knuckles everywhere, Aaron Boone stroked the game-winning home run to seal the Yankees' 11-inning victory.

Bonus Features include:
Chris Chambliss on his 1976 ALCS Game 5 home run;
June 17, 1978 Ron Guidry 18 Ks;
August 6, 1979 first game after Thurmon Munson died, Bobby Murcer hits the game-winner;
