Goodbye Yogi

Yogi Berra is cherished for being a lovable character, which I think has come to overshadow the fact that he was a ridiculously great player. See his stacked plaque: 3-time MVP, 10 rings! 100 RBI 5 times, 4 years in a row - AND he fought at D-Day!

My favorite all the billions & billions of Yogi-isms is, upon being asked at a pizzeria if he wanted the pizza cut into 4 slices or 6:

"You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I'm not hungry enough to eat six."

It was also on his triumphant return to The Stadium that David Cone threw his perfect game. Don Larson threw the first pitch to Yogi. Shit was spooky. 

A truly great Yankee who will be missed by all of baseball.
