Default RIP HOF Yogi Berra

I'm really sorry to hear of the passing of HOF great Yogi Berra at age 90.
Berra was definitely a one of a kind baseball treasure, 3 time MVP, and enjoyed one of the greatest careers ever as a backstop with the uber champion NYY's of the 1950's and 1960's. Additionally, Berra was the catcher in the only World Series perfect game authored by Don Larsen in 1956, game 5.

RIP Yogi. Heaven can use a great backstop!

I am so saddened by the news of Yogi's passing. As a fan of baseball history and an autograph/memorabilia collector, Yogi was, and will always be, a favorite of mine. R.I.P Yogi.

Yogi during the 2008 HOF weekend at Cooperstown. I think this was one of the last few he was able to attend.
