Interesting Snapshot Photos of first "Yankees" Game

Posted By: George Altemose

The term "Yankees" was certainly used prior to 1913. It is seen on T205 cards. And in Glenn Stout's excellent book "Yankees Century," it is stated that "Yankees" was widely used, particularly by the New York Evening Journal, and had become the name of choice among fans.

1904 was a great season, but it did not end with a playoff game. The last five games were scheduled between the Yankees (or Highlanders) and Boston. And Boston won the pennant by 1.5 games.
