“Yankee Stadium was Anthony’s home away from home for so many years, and this permanent plaque serves to honor his hard work, vibrant personality and uplifting spirit,” the Yankees said in a statement. “Anthony meant so much to so many, and it brought us great comfort to share this special day with his family and loved ones.” 

Causi’s wife Romina, their children John and Mia, his parents Lucille and John, his sisters Dianna and Maria and his extended family were on hand for the ceremony.

The plaque, in the shape of home plate with a picture of Causi from the final game at the old Yankee Stadium in 2008, hangs on the back wall of the photo well.

“A passionate talent, who always got his shot,” the plaque reads. “He captured history with extraordinary excellence and uncommon care. His luminous spirit and brilliant images remain with us forever.”
