36 - First given to Mel Queen (not the former Blue Jays coach) in 1942, this seemed reserved for bench players and back of the rotation guys for half a century. The great Johnny Mize was the most noteworthy of these. But in 1995, the Yankees traded a prospect named Marty Janzen to Toronto for David Cone. The hired gun found a home in the Bronx. He won more games for the Mets than he did for the Yankees - he won his Cy Young in Kansas City - he won his first World Series in Toronto. But he won several more rings in New York, pitched a perfect game, and will probably be best remembered as a Yankee.
In addition, I have a photograph (scanned 35mm slide from either the late 1960 or perhaps 1970-1971 showing the Yankee's first base coach wearing 36. It might be Ellie Howard or Hector Lopez but his back is facing us in the photo that I took at the Stadium.
