Power and Pinstripes: Untold Stories of Berra, the Boss, and Building a Yankees Dynasty by Jeff Mangold EPUB

No team in American sports has as storied a history as the New York Yankees, winners of 27 World Series. As the strength and conditioning coach for the Yankees for parts of three decades, Jeff Mangold played a key role in building the Yankees dynasty of the 1990s and 2000s. In Power and Pinstripes, Mangold shares stories from his 14 seasons behind the scenes in the Bronx. Mangold had a front row seat to the daily drama of George Steinbrenner's revolving door of managers Yogi Berra, Billy Martin, and Lou Piniella in the 1980s. When Mangold returned to the Yankees in 1998, he joined a budding dynasty and was tasked with maintaining the health of a star-studded roster that included the Core Four of Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada, Andy Pettitte, and Mariano Rivera. Mangold shares personal tales of finding his way with major league stars like Dave Winfield and Ron Guidry to how he motivated personalities like David Wells, to the challenge he faced when Roger Clemens and other Yankees arrived at spring training with their own personal strength coaches in tow. Power and Pinstripes provides a front-row seat to the inner sanctum of the Steinbrenner era Yankees that no fan will want to miss.
