As we look back on the history of the New York Yankees franchise, here are three former Bronx Bombers who were born on this day in history.
Yankees birthday: RHP Tom Morgan
A native of California, Morgan was born in 1930. He was one of the notable Yankees to make his major league debut during the 1951 season — another one, of course, being Mickey Mantle. Morgan took the loss in his debut, Game 2 of a doubleheader against the Washington Senators on April 20, when he allowed five earned runs in five innings of action.
