Then-Yankees manager Joe Torre called in during Mike & the Mad Dog's 10th anniversary special On Nov. 18, 1999.
The Yankees were just coming off winning their third world title in four years.
"When you win it once, it's sort of like an Academy Award — you're always an Academy Award winner," Torre said. "When you do it the second time, it's, 'Wow!' And then the third time, I haven't figured out an adjective for it yet."
