MAYOR GIULIANI'S STATEMENT ON NEW YORK YANKEES PITCHER DAVID CONE'S PERFECT GAME AGAINST THE MONTREAL EXPOS ON YOGI BERRA DAY
"Today was a perfect day for New York and the New York Yankees. David Cone made baseball and Yankees history not only by pitching just the 16th perfect game ever and the third in the history of the Yankees, but also by doing it with Don Larsen and Yogi Berra present on Yogi Berra Day. David Cone is one of the greatest pitchers in baseball and he is also one of the finest gentlemen in the game."
