Growing up in the NYC area in the 50's, you had to identify with the Giants, Dodgers or Yanks. I was a Brooklyn boy. While there were intense, spirited and often heated arguments about CF and Willie, Duke and the Mick, there was
as well one concerning the best NY catcher, Yogi or Campy (Wes Westrum of the Giants didn't make the cut.). While I will always be a Campy man, I would reluctantly give the nod to Yogi based on the stats and his incredible WS record. Of course, Roy's accident makes any comparison difficult.
