Yogi Berra is one of the best catchers to play the game of baseball. During his career he won the American League Most Valuable player three times and with the New York Yankees appeared in fourteen World Series winning ten.
After he retired from playing the game he became the manager of the Yankees and lead that team to the World Series only to be fired at the end of the season. He moved to the New York Mets where he worked first as a coach and then as a manager leading the Mets to the World series becoming one of the few managers to lead a team from both leagues to the World Series.
He will also be remembered for his witty quotes referred to as yogiisms.
It ain’t over ’til it’s over. – Actually he said. ‘You’re never out of it till you’re out of it.’
Ninety percent of the game is mental, the other half is physical.
When you get to a fork in the road, take it.
It’s like déjà vu all over again.
It gets late early out there.
I never said half the things I said.
