Yogi's Team

Lawrence Peter "Yogi" Berra is one of the greatest catchers of all time. It's hard to believe, but he was once told he would never play Major League Baseball. Growing up during the Depression, he was discouraged from participating in the sport regarded as a bum's game. But Yogi found incredibly clever ways to cope without proper equipment or fields in order to follow his dream. Determination, leadership, and a positive attitude led Yogi to play in 14 World Series as well as earn three MVPs and earn a spot on 15 All-Star teams. He also went on to become a successful manager and coach. Yogi was a true leader - expecting his players to place the success of the team before personal successes. The famous catcher added to his fame by accidentally speaking his now famous Yogi-isms. He has said, "It ain't over til it's over," and, "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."
