Which living BB player has been in 14 World Series, and has 10 World Series Championship rings ?

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.

In my book its......YOGI BERRA

1.Aaron - .305/755HR/3771Hits
2.Mays - .302/660HR/3283Hits/12 Straight Gold Gloves
3.Rose - .303/4,256Hits/Head of Big Red Mavhine
4.Ripken - 2,632 consec games/431HR/3184Hits/Title/MVP
5.F. Robinson - .294/584HR/2943Hits/Triple Crown
6.Berra- 3x MVP/10x World Champ

*Musial would have been #3 last year
**RIP Tony Gwynn '14. .338 batting average deserves consideration if alive.

I don't see Koufax in the top five pitchers. Gibson, Seaver, Ryan, Maddux, Johnson and Martinez are still kicking. Even a case could be made for Palmer, Carlton and Glavine.

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.

I agree statistics don't tell the full Yogi Berra story, but better than Mays and Aaron? No way.
