Manny Ramirez, renowned for breaking the Red Sox's championship drought, revealed in a recent interview his long-standing admiration for the Yankees, saying he always dreamed of playing for them. Born in the Dominican Republic, he moved to New York as a teenager and excelled in high school baseball. Despite achieving great success with Boston, including two World Series titles and frequently overpowering the Yankees in games, Ramirez's childhood dream reflected a complicated relationship with the rival team he often crushed during his career.
I'm always a Yankee fan, that was one of my dreams, to play with the Yankees. Didn't happen, but I got two World Series.
Even with plenty of highlights forged at the expense of the Yankees, the former star acknowledged that he always enjoyed playing in New York.
