Analysis:
New York Yankees (also translated as New York Yankees), English name New York Yankees, English abbreviation NYY, is a member of the American Major League Baseball. One of the baseball teams in the American League. The home stadium is located in the Bronx, New York. In the American League division, it belongs to the American League East, and because the team has a history of more than 100 years, it also has the most famous historical events in American sports history.
The New York Yankees have won 26 of the 39 World Series, followed only by the St. Louis Cardinals and the Oakland Athletics, who have won 9 championships. The Los Angeles Dodgers, who have participated in 18 World Series, rank second in the number of World Series participations. Among the major sports in North America, the closest to the championship record is the 24 Stanley Cup championships of the Montero Kennedy team of the American Ice Hockey League. The New York Yankees are also the only team among all teams to have players in every fielding position elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Origin of the team
At the end of the 1900 football season, league president Ban Johnson decided to reorganize a new league, called the [American League] (American League). In addition to the five cities in the previous minor league period (called the Western League before 1899), the American League added three more cities on the East Coast, including Baltimore, Maryland, which was cut when the National League was downsized the previous year. (Baltimore, Maryland). Johnson wanted to add a new team in New York City, but the owner of the National League's New York Giants used Tammany Hall to operate with political power and failed.
The team was founded in 1901 under the name of the Baltimore Orioles, with head coach John McGraw. Magrew disagreed with chairman Ben Johnson over the league's strict enforcement of rules, and he left to coach the New York Giants of the National League in the middle of the 1902 season. After the American League confiscated the Orioles and began management and attempted to move to New York, the owners of the New York Giants became interested in operating the team and poaching players.
In January 1903, the American League and National League held a "peace conference" to resolve disputes over player contracts and discuss future cooperation. The National League also agreed that the American League could locate a team in New York. The Baltimore franchise of the American League was sold to New York to new owners: Frank Farrell and William Devery, who were allowed to find a new base to build a stadium that did not belong to the New York Giants. Ferrell and Davery were deeply involved in city politics and gambling. Ferrell owned many casinos and pool clubs, and Davery was the police commissioner who was fired by the New York City Police Department in early 1902 for serious corruption.
Located in the Heights
The team was initially located at the junction of 165th Street and Broadway in Manhattan, New York, near the highest point of Manhattan Island. The stadium was called "Hilltop Park" and the team soon became known as the "New York Highlanders". The name can be extended to the famous British regiment "The Gordon Highlanders" (The Gordon Highlanders), named after Joseph Gordon, who led the regiment as its commander from 1903 to 1906. Today, the Hilltop Stadium has been replaced by Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center.
During the Highlanders era, the team only achieved its best second-place finish in 1904 and 1910; in contrast, they finished last in most of their first fifteen years in New York. The team's corrupt executives and some players with controversial behavior, such as the famous first baseman Hal Chase, began to be suspected of match-fixing, but only a small part was proven.
The team's best moment came on the last day of the 1904 season. New York pitcher Jack Che***'s wild pitch in the ninth inning gave the Boston Americans the winning run. This event had several historically distinct effects. First, because the Highlanders advanced to the conference championship game, the New York Giants refused to play a World Series against a "minor league team," even if Boston made it to the World Series. The result led to Giants owner John T. Brush being scolded by the media and leaving the committee to formulate the rules governing the World Series. 1904 was the last year the World Series could not be held until the 1994 Big Game. After Boston changed its name to the Red Sox in 1908, 1904 was the last time Boston defeated the New York Yankees in the league championship game until 2004, a century later.
The team played briefly from 1913 to 1922 at the Polo Grounds of its National League rivals, the New York Giants. Relations between the two franchises began to warm up as the Giants were able to rent the Hilltop Stadium to play while they were rebuilding the Polo Grounds, which had been destroyed by a fire in 1911. In the early 1900s, the team began to use the nickname "Yankees" occasionally, a nickname for Americans that dates back to June 21, 1904, when Patsy Dougherty was traded to Boston. In New York, the Boston Herald used "Dougherty as a Yankee" as the headline. From this fact, it can be seen that this nickname has long been known to everyone. On April 15, 1906, The New York Herald also ran the headline "Yankees win opening game from Boston, 2-1". The nickname spread quickly during the team's first ten years. The "Highlanders" name became problematic when the team changed stadiums in 1913, and the team's name became the unique "Yankees".
In the mid-1910s, Ferrier and Davery were short of funds and began to drift apart. In early 1915, they sold the team to Army Colonel Jacob Ruppert and Navy Captain Tillinghast L'Hommedieu Huston. Rupert is the heir to Rupert Winery and served as a U.S. House of Representatives for eight years. Rupert said that we spent $450,000 to buy an orphan team. It has no own stadium, no super players, and no reputation, but there is someone with deep pockets who is willing to spend a lot of money to turn it into a championship team. boss.
The Babe Ruth and Lou Gary Era
Over the next few years, the new owners began to add more money to the team. Many new players who made outstanding contributions to the Yankees were purchased from the Boston Red Sox. However, Red Sox owner, theater manager and Broadway show producer Harry Frazee used credit loans to buy the Red Sox but had no money left. Loans payable. From 1919 to 1922, the Yankees purchased Red Sox pitchers Waite Hoyt, Carl Mays and Herb Pennock, and catcher Willie Schumer. Ann] (Wally Schang), shortstop Everett Scott (Everett Scott) and third baseman Joe Dugan (Joe Dugan). However, pitcher-turned-outfielder Babe Ruth was the star of the trade. Freeze traded Ruth in January 1920, citing his demand for a maximum salary and the impact of the recession.
Ruth was also considered a life-drinking person, and he continued to live like this when he was with the Yankees, but the new owner was more tolerant of his behavior because of the fans and championships he brought. At the time, two major Boston newspapers approved of the deal. Because of Ruth's curse, the Boston Red Sox did not win any World Series championship from 1917 to 2004, and they were excluded from the World Series because of the success of the Yankees. In 1927, Freeze finally had success on Broadway with the musical No No Nate, including the famous song "Tea For Two".
Other important new members during this period were head coach Miller Huggins and general manager Ed Barrow. In 1919, while Haston was serving in Europe, Rupert hired Huggins, which caused a rift between the two owners, and in 1923 Rupert purchased Haston's interest in the Yankees. Bylow joined the Yankees in 1920 and, like the other new players, had been a member of the Red Sox and had managed the team since 1919. Bylow served as the Yankees' general manager and president for 25 years, and was undoubtedly a major contributor to the team's success. He was particularly instrumental in developing the Yankees' farm system.
