The New York Yankees finished a historic 1999 season 4 games ahead of the Boston Red Sox to win the division with a 98-64 record; Derek Jeter leading the league in hits while batting an impressive .349; and David Cone recording a perfect game on July 18, 1999. In a rematch of the 1996 World Series, the Yankees met the Atlanta Braves again, again proving their dominance with a 4-game sweep. Rivera recorded two critical saves in games 1 and 4, as well as a win in game 3 leading his team to their 25th championship and earning himself a World Series MVP award, the same year he led the league in saves (45).
This was the Yankees’ third championship in 4 years.
