Berra had had a long running 14 year fued with the “BOSS” George Steinbrenner but he and Steinbrenner had made up , Berra spoke this week of looking forward to Old Timers’ Day and paying tribute to the “BOSS” George Steinbrenner. Berra, 85,a fan favorite always gets one of the loudest ovations at old timers celebrations at the stadium.
Yogi Berra played 18 seasons for the Yankees and managed the team twice. He was a three-time American League MVP and in later years he became know as a baseball philosopher coining phases like “it aint over till it’s over” or “aint over till the fat lady sings”. Once Berra was asked ,”what time was it ?” and he responded with his usually humor “you mean now”
