New York Yankees History

By: Susan P Ormonds

Home | Business

Whenever you dream of Baseball what are the the initial words that spring to mind ? Surely it should be the Yankees ! Possibly the most renowned baseball group in the globe and having a rich historical past and background to match any sports crew.

The most famous insignia in sports is actually the interlocking NY which actually made its first appearance on the New York Yankees' (known then as the Highlanders) sleeves and caps way back in the year 1909. As the interlocking NY insignia gained more and more popularity, the New York Yankees decided to incorporate it at the front part of their uniforms while having matching navy blue baseball caps.

The immensely popular interlocking NY insignia was actually designed way back in 1877 by a fellow named Louis B. Tiffany who originally designed the popular insignia for a NYPD officer named John McDowell who was highly regarded at that time for his bravery and dedication to his work.

The official crew colors of the New York Yankees are Navy Blue, Red and White. Although the New York Yankees group motto is courage, tradition and heart. ! From 1903 the New York Yankees had numerous managers, 41 all in all, beginning with Clark Griffith to Joe Torre (the current New York Yankees manager from the year 1996 up to the present)!

The New York Yankees has a total of 26 world series to date although they have appeared in 39 world series finals.

The New York Yankees also can claim 40 Hall of Fame awardees, such as the ever popular Joe DiMaggio (1936-1942, 1946-1951) and Mickey Mantle (1951-1969) - he was even able to acquire 3 Most Valuable Awards throughout his career with the New York Yankees, whilst Joe DiMaggio had three as well and everyone's main man Babe Ruth who received just one.
