The Colonel and Hug Steinberg, Steve Investors Business Daily By Michael Mink Media Mention October 6 , 2015 Rec’d: October 14, 2015 1 For Miller Huggins, the choice of a baseball career was a matter of listening to his heart. Oh, and future President William Howard Taft. Huggins was the first legendary manager of the New York Yankees, who'd had seven skippers in 10 years before his 1918 arrival.

Under Huggins' watch, Babe Ruth was acquired and flourished at the plate, and Lou Gehrig was signed and developed. Huggins led the Yankees to the first three of their 27 world titles.
