The 9-time Gold Glove winning Yankees first baseman is shown at the
plate in his batting stance.
Photograph signed: "Don/Mattingly" in black felt tip, Color
8x10. First baseman Don Mattingly played his entire Major League career
(1982-1995) with the New York Yankees, and donned the pinstripes again as
hitting coach (2003) and then bench coach (2006). The Yankees reportedly have
him in mind as a future manager. A 6-time All-Star (1984-1989) and 9-time
Gold Glove, Mattingly captured the AL batting title in 1984, hitting .343, the
first Yankee since Lou Gehrig to hit over .340. He was American League MVP in
1985. The following year he set all-time Yankee marks for hits (238) and doubles
(53) in a season. Back injuries plagued Mattingly in the 1990s, derailing
what had previously looked like a Hall of Fame career. Nevertheless, he is
probably the greatest Yankee never to appear in a World Series. Immensely
popular with Yankee fans, Mattingly has a plaque in Yankee Stadium's Monument
Park. It reads, "A humble man of grace and dignity, a captain who
led by example, proud of the pinstripe tradition and dedicated to the pursuit of
excellence, a Yankee forever." In 2011, he became manager of the Los Angeles
Dodgers. Printed logo at bottom right corner. Fine condition.
