    I'm surprised it took the Yanx this long, to honor Willie.......but then again, the Yanx IMO, have over played their hands, when it comes to retired numbers, plaques, yet lack a couple or few Monuments, ie Yogi Berra, Jeter (I'd of given Derek His Monument on His last Home game, MO' also).......

    Willie is definitely worthy of a plaque & yes long over due & IMO several of the retired numbers should have been given plaques instead of having there numbers retired. Guys like Billy Martib (#1) Roger Maris (#9), Phil Rizzuto (#10), Reggie Jackson (#44) & Ron Guidry (#49). I also might throw in guys like Possada, Williams & Pettitte.

    Be nice to see the Yankees win a game on a day that they choose to honor someone, Eovaldi pitching I sure doubt it. Willie Randolph was a bit more reserved bit every bit as tough and capable on the Diamond as any of the other '76 to '78 Yankees.

    It never dawns on you that Munson was only 32 years old when he died in that plane crash.
