Logistically, Boone, being the manager, is due to the Yankees playing in the World Series last year. Torre was Boone's manager in 2003.

The year that Boone hit the iconic walk-off home run to win the American League Championship Series over the Boston Red Sox.

Just one of the many moments that Torre facilitated over.

Joe Torre's incomparable Yankees legacy 

Altogether, Torre left an indelible mark in the Bronx. He became Yankees manager in 1996.

That year, Torre won his first World Series as the Yankees defeated the Braves in six games.

From there, the Yankees won three more World Series titles (1998, 1999, 2000) under Torre. In addition, they won 6 AL pennants and 12 AL East division titles.

Ultimately, Torre managed the Yankees until 2007.
