The player with the highest batting average in Yankees history is Babe Ruth at .349. Lou Gehrig is second at .340. Joe DiMaggio and Earle Combs are tied for third at .325. The player with the most base hits in Yankees history is Lou Gehrig with 2,721. Derek Jeter is second, through games played on May 12, 2009 at 2,571. Babe Ruth is third with 2,518. It would be tough to select one player in Yankees history and say that player was the greatest hitter. The Yankees have 13 players in their history that have over 2,000 at bats and have a batting average of over .300 and another 12 players with a batting average between .290-.299. One couldn't go wrong by selecting Ruth or Gehrig but then it would be fair to select DiMaggio or Mickey Mantle, too.
The player with the most points in franchise history is kicker Morten Andersen.
There have been many players in Yankees history who have never won a World Series. Whether it was with the Yankees or another team.
