Here’s an interesting list. It’s the most “home games” played for the Yankees, by position, from 1976 through 2008 – with the “Top Five” for each position. In a way, these players are the “new” ghosts of what will soon become the “old” Yankee Stadium…
Catchers Games Shortstops Games Jorge Posada 665 Derek Jeter 1000 Rick Cerone 269 Bucky Dent 339 Butch Wynegar 233 Alvaro Espinoza 224 Thurman Munson 233 Bobby Meacham 207 Joe Girardi 190 Fred Stanley 143 First Basemen Games Left Fielders Games Don Mattingly 813 Hideki Matsui 285 Tino Martinez 515 Lou Piniella 185 Chris Chambliss 303 Dave Winfield 174 Jason Giambi 242 Roy White 173 Andy Phillips 92 Rickey Henderson 118 Second Basemen Games Center Fielders Games Willie Randolph 867 Bernie Williams 924 Robinson Cano 275 Roberto Kelly 255 Pat Kelly 248 Mickey Rivers 232 Steve Sax 234 Rickey Henderson 154 Alfonso Soriano 233 Jerry Mumphrey 139 Third Basemen Games Right Fielders Games Graig Nettles 525 Paul O'Neill 594 Alex Rodriguez 382 Dave Winfield 351 Mike Pagliarulo 342 Reggie Jackson 256 Wade Boggs 279 Jesse Barfield 191 Scott Brosius 269 Bobby Abreu 184

Wow, Phillips in 5th place just shows how many 1st baseman we have used since 2001.
Can anyone name all of the 1st baseman that have played for us since the 2002 season?
