Mike Mussina hits 20 win mark for first time in his career; Hank Steinbrenner, shocked that having a 20-game winner does not earn an automatic bid for the playoffs, files for appeal with league office.

Former players, legions of loyal concession stand vermin honored at Shea Stadium closing ceremonies.
