After ownership of the Cleveland Indians spurned his offer, Steinbrenner led a limited partnership in the purchase of the New York Yankees from CBS for about $10 million.
Steinbrenner quickly became one of the first and most prominent owners to sign some of the league's best players to big-money contracts and promote the team accordingly.
Steinbrenner's concept of owning a baseball team was broader than previously imagined, taking the various parts of the Yankees enterprise and organizing them as a global entity.
The Sports Business Handbook's rerelease features 50 game-changing moments in the sports industry, including the Black Power salute at the 1968 Olympics and George Steinbrenner's acquisition of the New York Yankees. In partnership with STAKS, author Rick Horrow has created 50 NFTs redeemable for physical artwork of these events.
Buyers will also receive an autographed copy of Horrow's book and 2 VIP tickets to the Palm Beach Kennel Club's "Lunch with a Legend" event in West Palm Beach, FL.
