The automatic default is always 1965. That’s the year when the Yankees — quoting Elston Howard here — “all seemed to get old at the same time.”
A 99-win team in 1964 tumbled to a 77-win team in ’65. A true mega-dynasty that had stretched all the way back to 1921 — 29 pennants and 20 championships, with winning seasons in 45 of the previous 46 seasons dating to 1918 — was kneecapped, the Yankees finishing sixth, beginning a postseason drought that would extend until 1976.
And 1982 is in the news again because when the Yankees fell to the Nationals on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium, 2-1, it was their ninth straight loss. And the last Yankees team to lose nine straight were those ’82 Yankees, who went 0-8 on a road trip through Baltimore and Milwaukee in mid-September, then added a loss to Cleveland at home.
The Yankees, for decades, had their pick of every top available amateur player. As much as the financial clout of big-market teams seems a wedge in the game now, it was preposterous in the days before the entry draft was instituted — no coincidence, in 1965. The Yankees had also been slower than most to integrate, and that also caught up with them by ’65. What followed was, in essence, a 12-year penance while the Yankees caught back up with the rest of baseball.
