Though the 1927 New York Yankees are remembered for their "Murderers Row" batting order, the pitching staff also played a role in their astounding 110-44 record. This 6.75x5" posed image has eight Yanks lined up; a total of nine pitchers saw significant time that season and some are hard to identify in this photo, but the staff consisted of starters Waite Hoyt, Urban Shocker, Herb Pennock, Dutch Ruether, George Pipgras, along with Wilcy Moore, Myles Thomas, Bob Shawky, and Joe Giard. Small cut to bottom left corner and minor creases at the others, none of which impacts the central image. Verso is blank; vintage image from an immortal team.
