An Iconic Piece of Baseball History

From the personal collection of Brian McNamee, this remarkable World Series trophy stands as a testament to the thrilling 2000 “Subway Series” between the New York Yankees and the New York Mets. Presented to us as a cherished memento, this trophy was reportedly given directly to McNamee by the legendary pitcher Roger Clemens, a key figure in the Yankees’ triumphant victory.

The 2000 “Subway Series”: A Historic Clash

The year 2000 marked a significant moment in baseball history as the New York Yankees faced off against the New York Mets in the World Series, the first such encounter since 1956. This electrifying series captivated fans across the city and beyond, culminating in the Yankees’ 26th World Championship title. Roger Clemens, having joined the Yankees the previous year, played a pivotal role in this victory. His performance in Game Two was nothing short of spectacular, pitching eight innings of shutout baseball with nine strikeouts, no walks, and only two hits.
