These are a bunch of 1998 New York Yankees World Series Pins. If you are too blind to see or this photo quality is not very good, you can see that the Yankees swept the series 4-0. The Yankees had a total of 125 wins on the season (including the playoffs). Their record on the regular season was 114-48. The Yankees finished ahead of the Red Soxs by 22 games, they clinched the wild card. You can see the full standings here: http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/index.jsp#19980928.
Scott Brosius was the World Series MVP. This was the Yankees' 24th World Championship Win tying them with the Montreal Canadians as the most Champions won by a franchise. Although the Yankees have since gotten 3 more making them the leaders.
