Bill Dickey, uniform retired 1972

A member of seven world championship Yankee teams, Bill is considered the greatest catcher of all-time. He was an exemplary Yankee from 1928-1946.

Yogi Berra, uniform retired 1972

Yogi was one of the best catchers and clutch hitters of all-time. A Yankee from 1946-1963, he played in more World Series (14) than anyone else in history.

(The number 8 is retired for both men because Berra was essentially Dickey's successor, and was given his number.)
