The first baseball team to use numbers on uniforms was the 1916 Cleveland Indians when they wore small numbers on the sleeves of their uniforms, as a way of identifying the players. This practice was short lived.

in 1929 the New York Yankees decided to wear numbers to the backs of their jerseys. The numbers corresponded to each player's general position in the lineup.for example Babe Ruth wore No. 3, since he usually batted third, and Lou Gehrig wore No. 4 as he batted fourth.

Here is a small list of some noted Baseball players that wore uniform number 8. * Carl Yastrzemski (1961-83) * Charlie Grimm (Player & Manager) (1935) * Andre Dawson (1987-92) * Nomar Garciaparra (2004) * Joe Morgan * Gary Carter * Yogi Berra * Bill Dickey * Willie Stargell (1962-1982)

Steven Gerrard from Liverpool FC is one of the player with the number 8 on the back. That's all I knew.

If you are asking about American Football, that would be none other than Archie Manning for the New Orleans Saints. 1971-1982. That number is now retired.
