Cliff Mapes wore uniform number 3 for the 1948 New York Yankees, then switched to number 13 later that year when the Yankees retired number 3 for Babe Ruth. Mapes also wore uniform number 7 for the Yankees from 1949 - 1951. Later in the 1951 season Mapes was traded and Mickey Mantle took number 7.
Mantle originaly wore uniform number 6 in 1951 but was sent down to the minors because of a slow start. When he returned number 7 was his for good.
