Whitey Ford wore uniform number 16 for the New York Yankees from 1953 - 1967 and from 1968-1975 as a coach. Whitey Ford's number 16 was retired by the New York Yankees in 1974.

There were 15 Yankees that wore the number 16 before him including Ernie Nevel in 1950, Whitey's first year when he wore number 19. Ford did not play in 1951, and 1952
