OT: Just two of the greatest taking some batting practice

Saw this clip on Facebook and had to share the link. Great quality video of Ruth and Gehrig taking batting practice.

You would never see two players sharing the same bat today.

You can see NYY #32 and 25 warming up in the background, but the internet seems to think that no one wore those numbers for the Yankees in 1931.

Jimmy Reese wore #25 in 1930, but that's as close as I've found.
32 was shared by: Bill Karlon, Ken Holloway, and Frank Barnes in 1930.

I guess they wore different uniforms for exhibition games?

I was also checking out the uniform numbers but they really didn't make much sense. Mayne this wasn't 1931.
