At Yankee Stadium, about 150 fans braved a chilly fall night and yelled "Yankees, Yankees" to welcome the team. Before any of the player's got off the bus that carried them from the airport to the stadium, two men carried off a big black box, which held the World Series trophy. The front of the bus had a No. 39 and several strawberries on it in honor of out sec- ond trip in three years up the of "Canyon Heroes." Yankees fans used their connections to get into a restricted mil Qf : area at Newark Airport to weltheir team home. The team landed at about 7:30 p.m. and two fire trucks used their hoses to create an arch over the jet on the runway as fans shouted play ers names. come II, 1 fielder Darryl Strawberry, who is Manager Better luck next year: New York reliever Mariano Rivera (42) pats his Padre counterpart Trevor Hoffman after the Yankees won the World Series.

Fans were kept behind police barricades while players got off the bus and went into the stadi um or to cars waiting in the parking lot. Minutes after the Yankees won a record 24th World Series title, the city began making plans for a huge parade today to honor the Bronx Bombers. "The city has been galvanized by baseball," Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said during a press conference. "This is history. There has never been a team that had a record like this." The Empire State Building will honor the team by illuminating the top of the historic edifice in blue and white, the team colors. with the World free-agen- The Padres say they need a new ballpark to survive financially. They effectively become free agents at the end of the 1999 season, when their lease expires at Qualcomm Stadium. If the ballpark issue passes, they'll commit to staying for up to 30 years and, more importantly, will see their revenue increase. "There won't be any revenue for two or three years, but what conit'll help with is long-tertracts," general manager Kevin Towers said. "We'd be free agents, so to speak. It'd be tough to sign guys without the ballpark." The Padres have had informal talks with Brown's agent, Scott Boras, who was the team's guest during an earlier round in the playoffs. The addie tion of the Brown in December galvanized the club, particularly the pitching staff. Brown's 16 strikeouts in Game 1 of the division series at Houston set the tone for the playoff run that saw the Padres eliminate victories) (98 Houston (102 victories) and Atlanta (106) before losing in four to the Yankees (114). The Padres likely would blasting over the PA. These are the loudest fans I've ever heard," center fielder Steve Finley said, "lt'd be great to keep this team together. I'd love to make another run here." 17-ye- Judging owner by John Moores' emotional reaction, though, the Padres likely will make that run with a few new faces. '"I told the guys at my house a month and a half ago I'd like to bring 'em all back every year. I'd like to build a field of dreams where they all could go into the corn field. I get choked up. It's going to be hard." Moores said, excusing himself from a group of reporters so he could compose himself. The Padres' top priority is keeping ace Kevin Hrown, one of four key players eligible to file for free agency. The others are Finley, first baseman Wally Joyner and third baseman Ken - 3-- 0 AC-DC- enthusiastic of Dozens DIEGO (AP) -Minutes after being swept by the New York Yankees, the San Diego Padres started talking about getting back to the World Series. Now that the season is over, though, the players don't control the action. Keeping this Padres team together will depend on the voters, who will be asked Nov. 3 to approve a downtown ballpark, and on t decisions by the front office. This was a special year and 1 don't think anybody should hang their head," said Tony Gwynn, who hit .500 in only the second World Series of his career. "I'd like to see everybody back, if that's possible, and make another run." The Padres took their best shot at the Yankees, and it wasn't good enough. "Now I'm going to pick up the paper and see what happens with negotiations and voting," Gwynn said. If the voters react the same way the 65,427 fans did after loss that Wednesday night's ended the World Series, the $411 million ballpark project would seem to be in good shape. After the Yankees moved their celebration into the clubhouse, the Padres walked back onto the field and were overwhelmed by an unprecedented curtain call for a losing team. Most of the crowd stuck around and cheered for a good 20 minutes. "That will rank as one of the most special moments in the game for me," said closer Trevor Hoffman, who even got a final rendition of his theme "Hell's Bells," song, SAN trophy in one arm and a child in the other. Pitcher Andy Pettitte raised his right fist to acknowledge the fans. Brian Dunwoody, 8, and his brother, Thomas, of Howell, N.J., hoisted a sign reading "World championship Yanks, greatest team ever." While most team members and their families climbed onto waiting buses for the ride to Yankee Stadium, pitcher David Wells got into his own limo and drove off. Batboy James D'Anjelo, 14, of Greenwich, Conn., flew home with the team. "It was great. It felt like a n THE DAILY HERALD ultra-competitiv- Caminiti. Caminiti, a fan favorite, was broken down physically by the time the Series ended and might have worn a Padres uniform for the last time. Caminiti, 35, hit just .143 and made two errors in the World Series, including a critical one in Game 2. 's Series offer Hrown $10 million annually over three to five years. He made $1.8 million this year. "We'd love to have Kevin hack here," Moores said. "We're going to have to understand what the market is, just like Kevin will. We're going to make him." a serious effort to Hrown, who lost Wednesday night's game, didn't want to speculate about free agency. "This has been too draining to look to the future," he said. The Padres likely will be able to keep two or three of the big four potential free agents. If the Padres lose Finley, they could plug in exciting Ruben Rivera.
