Roy Hamey
Henry Roy Hamey (June 9, 1902 – December 14, 1983) was an American front-office executive in Major League Baseball. A longtime employee of the New York Yankees, he reached the pinnacle of his career when he was appointed the general manager of the Yanks in November 1960. Although he inherited a pennant winner from his predecessor, George Weiss, Hamey maintained the Yankee standard. He produced three additional American League champions and two World Series champions in his three full seasons in the GM chair, before retiring in the autumn of 1963.
==Career in minor leagues==
A native of Havana, Illinois, Hamey entered minor league baseball in 1925 as business manager of Class B Springfield of the Three-I League. In 1934 he joined the Yankees as front office boss of their Class A Binghamton Triplets club in the New York–Pennsylvania League. At the time, Weiss, who was then the Yankees' farm system director, was building a minor league organization that would rival, and perhaps surpass, the St. Louis Cardinals' pioneering system. After Hamey's success at Binghamton, Weiss transferred him to business manager of one of New York's two top-level farm clubs, the Kansas City Blues of the top-level (then Double-A) American Association. Stocked with Yankee prospects, the Blues were almost annually competitive in the prewar years and during World War II.
In 1945, Larry MacPhail, former general manager of the Cincinnati Reds and Brooklyn Dodgers, returned from United States Army service in World War II and shocked baseball when he formed an ownership syndicate that purchased the Yankees from the estate of Jacob Ruppert. MacPhail simultaneously installed himself as president and general manager, blocking the career paths of both Weiss and Hamey. While Weiss bided his time and remained as New York's farm director and vice president, Hamey departed to become president of the American Association.
