Born: April 20, 1961 in Evansville, IN
Number retired in 1997.
"Donnie Baseball" was only the 10th captain to be named by the
Yankees in their storied history. The premier first baseman of his
era, Mattingly was a nine-time Gold Glove winner. The 1985 American
League MVP set records for most grand slams in a season (6), most
home runs in seven consecutive games (9) and eight consecutive
games (10). A humble man of grace and dignity, Mattingly carried on
the legacy of the pinstripe tradition and dedicated his career to
the pursuit of excellence.
