Mickey Mantle had his #7 retired by the Yankees in 1969.
Honestly I don't think Mickey Mantle did anything after retirement. Because I am doing research and no books or websites tell when he retired. Sorry if you are bummed.
No. Alex Rodriguez only wore the number 13 as a Yankee. The number 7 was retired in honor of Mickey Mantle.
The Yankees have retired sixteen numbers to date: 1 - Billy Martin 3 - Babe Ruth 4 - Lou Gehrig 5 - Joe DiMaggio 7 - Mickey Mantle 8 - Bill Dickey and Yogi Berra (number retired after Berra's retirement). 9 - Roger Maris 10 - Phil Rizzuto 15 - Thurman Munson 16 - Whitey Ford 23 - Don Mattingly 32 - Elston Howard 37 - Casey Stengel 42 - Jackie Robinson (while Robinson did not play for the Yankees all 30 MLB teams have 'retired' the number. Mariano Rivera currently wears it and when he retires, it will probably be retired for him as well as Robinson). 44 - Reggie Jackson 49 - Ron Guidry
