10 Best Yogi Berra Quotes

Posted by JustBats.com on Jul 9, 2018 3:46:43 PM

Lawrence Peter Berra was born on May 12th, 1925 in St. Louis, MO. Berra began playing baseball in local American Legion leagues where he learned to throw and catch. While playing in American Legion, he received the nickname “Yogi” from his friend Jack Maguire.
