RIP. One of the all-time greats.
Unfortunately, I never saw Yogi play, although I did see him at an autograph show at Expo Center near Dulles Airport. Larsen was at same show. Heaven for this Yankee fan.
My dad saw Yogi play in 1943 for the Norfolk Tars before Yogi (and my dad) entered the service. My dad said Yogi lacked defensive skills that he later picked up from Bill Dickey.
