The Yankees introduced uniform numbers on their jerseys in 1929. Originally, the numbers indicated the player's spot in the batting order, i. e. Ruth #3, Gehrig #4, etc., but that changed when other teams started to give player's numbers so that the fans could identify them by referring to the scorecards sold at the stadiums.
