TAMPA, Fla., March 6 — Fun in the sun was today’s plan, and I don’t want to mislead you into thinking we didn’t execute that plan. But the Tiki Bar and the pool came after accomplishing the legwork required for presenting you with what I consider a Treat (with a capital “T”) on the one hand, and a mystery on the other. Pictured on the right is the Yanks’ Tampa version of Monument Park in 15 photos.

Running across the right top of the photo on the home page is Steinbrenner Drive, with parking for Legends Field employees and luxury box owners above that at the top of the photo. The second of four plaques (from the right of the photo) facing that roadway is The Babe, and we decided to start this slide show with him, and then proceed in a clockwise fashion, presenting The Mick next, and ending with the Yankee Clipper. The logic for the order in which these tributes are presented in Tampa escapes us — and we invite your thoughts and opinions. But whatever you do, don’t forget to enjoy and celebrate the Yankee heroes as you try to figure it out!

Yanks and Devil Rays in St. Pete tomorrow, chance of showers.

YANKEE BASEBALL!!!
