NEW YORK -- Now that No. 2 is about to be officially retired in honor of Derek Jeter, the New York Yankees will no longer have any single-digit jersey numbers available for players.
Well, except for one, but it's a number nobody's worn in the team's 115-year history: Zero.
So would a Yankee ever don No. 0? Maybe, but among the current group in the Bronx, the answer appears to be a resounding no. After surveying seven members of the Yankees' roster, as well as manager Joe Girardi, it's safe to say none of them is going to wear the uniform anytime soon.
