Like many out there, we're very excited about the new book by Jane Leavy "The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's Childhood". Ben W is diligently reading it and taking notes for a review on the blog but in the meantime, we'll be giving out three copies at three separate times to make sure everyone gets a chance to win. But to know when we're giving it out, you're going to have to be visiting the blog quite a bit in the next week so you don't miss out on any opportunities.
Here is the first chance: Mickey Mantle is the all-time leader in home runs by a switch hitter. Behind him on the all-time switch-hitting home run list there are 7 other players in the top 13 who played for the Yankees. To win the first copy of the book, name any 5 out of those 7.
Put your answer in the comments below. One guess per person. The person with the first correct guess wins the book I will announce the first winner later. You have to put down 5 guesses to be win the prize. Good luck and make sure to come back here all this week for more chances to win this great book.

Note sure who the seventh is.
And we have a winner! Richard ends it on the first guess! The one he missed was Tony Clark who briefly played for the Yankees during the forgettable 2004 season. Congrats to Richard (who should e-mail me so he can claim his prize) and for the rest of you, stay tuned here at NYaT for a chance to win the other 2 books!
