Yogi Berra has played in 14 World Series......and, has 10 World Series Championship rings. Has any other ballplayer in the history
of BB achieved more than this in the post season ?
I don't think so !
And, Yogi has played a major role in his team's success for 18 years. There is not any better measurement of a ballplayer than this.
Both Yogi and Mickey each have 3 MVP awards. Their combined statistical numbers in World Series play are impressive:
........
Berra ....
Mantle ..... Total
AB...... 259 ....... 230 ......... 489
Hits..... 71 ......... 59 .......... 130
HR....... 12 ........ 18 ........... 30
RBI...... 39 ........ 40 ........... 79
In my years (1947-2014) watching BB....
MICKEY MANTLE &
YOGI BERRA are the greatest duo that I've ever seen play the game.
Individually, Joe DiMaggio, Jackie Robinson, Ted Williams, and Stan Musial are the greatest I've seen.
