The team moved to New York City in 1903 and became the New York Highlanders, before taking the "Yankees" as their official name in 1913. Yankees home games were played at Yankee Stadium from 1923 to 1973 and from 1976 to 2008. In 2009, they moved into a new ballpark also called Yankee Stadium after the previous venue closed.
