On this day in 1986, during Billy Martin Day at #YankeeStadium, the Bronx Bombers retire uniform #1 and dedicate a plaque in Monument Park which reads, 'There has never been a greater competitor than Billy'. The team's former scrappy second baseman and four-time manager tells the sold-out crowd, "I may not have been the greatest Yankee to put on the uniform, but I am the proudest." #ThisDayInYankeesHistory #BronxFaithful
