Joe Girardi made everyone well aware of his goal as the new manager of the New York Yankees by selecting the number 27 for his pinstriped jersey. When he was hired following the 2007 baseball season, Girardi began his quest to lead the franchise to their 27th World Series title in the history of the organization. Before that famous press conference where he accepted the challenge of leading the “Bronx Bombers” back to the top, Joe started out his days in the MLB in 1989 when he joined the Chicago Cubs organization and played there for his first four seasons. After his time with the Cubs and three as a member of the Colorado Rockies, Joe put on the pinstripes for the very first time in 1995 when he was traded to the New York Yankees to be their starting catcher. In just four years with the Yankees, Girardi’s impact was tremendous as he was a part of three World Series championship teams in 1996, 1998, and 1999. Before hanging up his cleats after the 2003 season, Girardi spent three more seasons with the Cubs, including an All Star appearance in 2000, and finished his career up with one season as a St. Louis Cardinal.

Known throughout the league both on and off the field, it was only a matter of time until Joe Girardi became a manager. In 2006, he got his first chance with the Florida Marlins and was named National League Manager of the Year. Then his opportunity with the New York Yankees came, where he his goal was finally reached in 2009 when the Yankees won their 27th World Series title. He is not finished however as he plans to change his number to 28 prior to the 2010 MLB season.
