The Early Years

The New York Yankees were founded in 1903 as the Baltimore Orioles. They played their first game on April 22, 1903, at Hilltop Park in Baltimore. The team struggled in its early years, finishing with a losing record in each of its first six seasons. In 1909, the team moved to New York City and changed its name to the New York Yankees.

The Babe Ruth Era

The Yankees' fortunes changed dramatically in 1920 when they acquired Babe Ruth from the Boston Red Sox. Ruth was one of the greatest baseball players of all time, and he helped the Yankees win seven World Series championships in the 1920s. Ruth's popularity helped to make the Yankees one of the most popular teams in baseball, and he is still considered one of the most important figures in the history of the sport.

The Mickey Mantle Era

After DiMaggio retired in 1951, the Yankees continued to be a dominant team, led by Mickey Mantle. Mantle was one of the greatest all-around players of all time, and he helped the Yankees win seven World Series championships in the 1950s and 1960s. Mantle was a fan favorite, and he is still considered one of the most popular players in Yankees history.
