New York Yankees Compete in World Series

The New York Yankees are America's World Series again this year. It is one of two professional baseball teams in the country's largest city. The players who wear the Yankee's famous "pinstripes" are part of a winning tradition that dates back more than 100 years. The team leads Major League Baseball in revenue and in championships. They have won 40 American League pennants and beaten the National League in the World Series 26 times, in a sport that is often called "The National Pastime." But critics say the sport and its professional players are driven more and more by money. Correspondent Paige Kollock takes a look at the Yankees, the fans and the trappings of baseball
