Solution 1

I was able to solve this with @Jacob's solution with some additional steps. I'll post it here for anyone else facing this.

1. Firstly as Jacob mentioned I downloaded and installed the latest Python 2.7.14+.

2. Executed sudo easy_install pip to install pip again

3. Executed sudo pip install numpy

Solution 2

Download the latest version of Python 2.7 (https://www.python.org/downloads/), matplotlib install should work fine after that.

Also if it's a brand new mac, just make sure that you have command line tools installed
