Even as a Yankee fan
I loved this old ditty...
Who hits the ball and makes it go?
Dominick DiMaggio.
Who runs the bases fast, not slow?
Dominick DiMaggio.
Who's better than his brother Joe?
Dominick DiMaggio.
But when it comes to getting dough,
They give it all to brother Joe.
(Refrain recited by Red Sox fans in the 1940s.)
Rest in Peace, a fine ballplayer. I don't expect he will get into the HOF but he is more deserving than some who are there.
