The 2015 New York Yankees season was the 113th for the New York Yankees, who play in the American League East of Major League Baseball. The team finished the regular season with a record of 87–75, six games behind the Toronto Blue Jay for second place. They clinched the host Wild Card berth, but lost to the Houston Astros in the 2015 American League Wild Card Game.
This was the Yankees' first full season in over twenty years without team captain and shortstop Derek Jeter, who retired at the end of the 2014 season. In addition, the Yankees retired the jersey numbers of center fielder Bernie Williams (51), catcher Jorge Posada (20), and pitcher Andy Pettitte (46) during the season; doing so brought the total amount of retired numbers to 20, for 22 different players.
In 2022, a letter was released detailing the illicit use of technology to steal signs by the Yankees during the 2015 and 2016 seasons.[2]
