Not sure the quality of life and obviously he is a New Yorker, but nonetheless he is a living legend. It ain't over 'til it's over. Salute! |

He's probably the greatest living player left over 90. Not sure how many guys from that era still around although Whitey Ford is. |

just for the hell of it i looked up yogi's stats - what a career. what impressed me the most were his strikeout totals. he had 8,359 plate appearances over 19 years and struck out a grand total of 414 times, or once every 20 AB. he never struck out more than 38 times in a single season. he was never a prolific home run hitter (358 lifetime) but for a hitter with his power i think those K numbers are amazing. |
