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.
The number 9 was retired by the Yankees in honor of Maris in 1984. Fan Favorite, Graig Nettles was the last Yankee to wear the number from 1973-1983. A lotof fans feel that the number should have been retired for Nettles.
