In baseball, coaches serve as assistants to the manager. In the past, coaches did not serve in specific roles, as noted in the position titles, such as "first assistant." The number of coaches on a team's staff has increased over the years, and coaching evolved so that individual coaches took on specific roles. Base coaches also serve as infield, outfield, and base-running instructors. Teams also have a pitching coach, hitting coach, and bullpen coach, who often works with the catchers. The bench coach, a newer role on the coaching staff, serves as a second-in-command, advising the manager during the game.{{cite news|url=https://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2008/03/23/more_than_just_a_side_job/?page=1|title=More than just a side job: For a manager, bench coach is trusted confidant|work=Boston Globe|first=Gordon|last=Edes|date=March 23, 2008|access-date=September 25, 2009}}
Many Yankees coaches are former players, former managers or future managers.{{cite web|url=http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/nyy/history/coaches.jsp|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070429023010/http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/nyy/history/coaches.jsp|url-status=dead|archive-date=April 29, 2007|title=Yankees All-Time Coaches|work=Yankees.com|access-date=August 15, 2009}}
