Description
1961 New York Yankees Team Signed Cut Display. The 1961 New York Yankees were one of the most powerful and iconic teams in baseball history, finishing the regular season with a 109-53 record and winning the American League pennant. Managed by Ralph Houk, the team was led by the legendary slugging duo of Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle, who electrified fans with their pursuit of Babe Ruth's single-season home run record.Maris ultimately broke the record by hitting 61 home runs, earning the AL MVP award, while Mantle added 54 homers despite battling injuries late in the season. The lineup also featured strong contributions from Yogi Berra, Elston Howard, and Bill Skowron, with a solid pitching staff led by Whitey Ford, who went 25-4 and won the Cy Young Award.
