The 1964New York Yankees season was the 62nd season for the Yankees. The team finished with a record of 99–63, winning their 29thpennant, finishing 1 game ahead of theChicago White Sox. New York was managed byYogi Berra. The Yankees played atYankee Stadium. In theWorld Series, they were defeated by theSt. Louis Cardinals in 7 games. It would also be their last postseason appearance until 1976.

Yogi Berra, taking over as manager fromRalph Houk, who in turn moved up togeneral manager, had a difficult early season, with many veterans missing games due to injury. Doubts about his ability to manage his former teammates were brought into the open with theHarmonica Incident in late August, in which he clashed withutility infielder Phil Linz on the team bus following a sweep by theChicago White Sox that appeared to have removed the Yankees from pennant contention. The team rallied behind Berra afterwards, and won the pennant. However the incident may have convinced the team's executives to replace Berra withJohnny Keane, manager of the victorious Cardinals, after the season.

This season is considered to be the endpoint of the "Old Yankees" dynasty that had begun with theRuppert–Huston partnership and then continued with theTopping–Webb partnership. The Yankees would soon undergo ownership changes and front office turmoil, and would not be a serious factor in the pennant chase again until the mid-1970s. For television viewers and radio listeners, the sudden removal ofMel Allen following that season marked the end of an era of Yankees television and radio broadcasts.
