What's really crazy about that is he spent his entire playing career with the Yankees, a team that has gone to the World Series 40 times in its history. It's not like he spent his career with the Mariners or Expos.
The Yankees went to the World Series the year before he made his MLB debut as well as the year after he retired. His career perfectly coincided with the Yankees' longest stretch of time without a World Series appearance since they became the Yankees in 1913 (which they will tie if they don't go to the Series next season).
