And, he played a major role in his team's success for 19 years. There isn't any better measurement of a player than this.

1947 Bond Bread rookie card
Yogi was a tremendous clutch hitter....so, for you guys who dig Stats....
here are some meaningful Stats that really count:
Year = RBI's
--------------
1948.....98
1949.....91
1950....124
1951.....88
1952.....98
1953....108
1954....125
1955....108
1956....105
1957.....82
1958.....90
Furthermore, Yogi's invaluable performance behind homeplate is not fully recognized by Statistical means.
Finally, consider this old axiom......the key factor behind most Championship teams is a Star Catcher.
