Here's some quotes from some members of the Yankees family via George A. King III:

The Yankees know the value Steinbrenner places on defeating the Phillies to cop their 27th World Series title.

"It means a lot to him," Derek Jeter said. "He expects us to win."

"It would be a great way to honor him," general manager Brian Cashman said of beating the Phillies. "If we do, you are going to see a lot of attention surround him."

"It would mean a lot to him and it would mean a lot to the boys," [Reggie] Jackson said. "That is a very close-knit family and they understand the timing of winning this championship."

"I think it means a lot to my dad," Hal [Steinbrenner] said. "All these players are doing it for him. We want to win this whole thing for him and I think we feel he's here. He's a big part of it."

Jack Curry breaks down all the similarities between Hal and his father.
