6. Jeffrey Maier

We all know Jeffrey Maier. We all remember that fateful October evening in the Bronx where Derek Jeter lifted the Yankees to a victory over the division rival Baltimore Orioles.

Oops, did I say Jeter? I meant Maier. But for years, he was deemed a hero, just a kid who was going after a ball.

This moment is so memorable in Yankees history that it would be a crime to not include it. Maier changed the course of history, so, of course, this had to be recognized as a top fan moment for the New York Yankees.
