For many Americans, Opening Day was, and remains, the true marker of each year's beginning. Here we relive the Opening Days of baseball's most storied and glamorous team, the New York American League club that began as the Highlanders and achieved glory as the Yankees.

In addition to being one of baseball's most accomplished batters, Willie Keeler was an integral part of two memorable teams: the Baltimore Orioles and the Brooklyn Superbas. This is the first biography of Keeler, the most prominent member of the first American League team in New York.
