I read Yogi Berra’s book, “When you come to a fork in the road, take it”. Besides being one of the greatest catchers in the history of the game, he is in his own unique way, incredibly smart and insightful.
Yep, one of my favorite players. As a loonnnnggggggggggggg time MLB addict I rate only Bench ahead of him for overall physical skill at the catcher’s position on my ‘all time’ team. The ‘Old Perfesser’, Casey Stengel, said Yogi was the smartest player he ever managed and as you mentioned, very smart in life’s ways. He is an American treasure in my book!
