When the Yankees first moved to New York in 1903 they played at Hilltop Park in Manhattan. The team was then called the Highlanders. The Highlanders moved to the Polo Grounds in 1913 and the team name was changed to the Yankees. The Yankees would share the Polo Grounds with the New York Giants until 1922.
