On October 29, 1920 — In a move less heralded than the acquisition of Babe Ruth earlier in the year, the Yankees hire Red Sox skipper Ed Barrow to be the team’s general manager. Barrow led the Red Sox to the World Championship in 1918 and will find even greater success in New York. Under the future Hall of Famer’s leadership over the next quarter-century, the Bronx Bombers will win 14 American League pennants and 10 World Series championships. Hugh Duffy replaces Barrow in Boston.
