reach that mark again this year.
His lifetime batting average, going into the pre-
sent seasons .286-Which is plenty good.
Yogi has played i'm more World Series games
(6D and has more World Series hits 6D than any
other player. In the 1856 Series, he SET a record by
driving i'm 10 runs against The Dodgers. He also
snaeked three homers. In the 1855 Series, he cracked
out 10 hits for a All average.
An awkward batter? Don't you believe it for one
minute. No awkward batter ever could collect that
batch Of hitting records.
An overall judgment of Berra'S baseball ability
quickly can be made by noting that he has been on
the American Leagues All-Star team 10 straight
years. Moreover, he has been named the loops Most
Valuable Player three times-in 1951-54-55.
One point that sportswriters like to dwell upon
is Berra's congeniality and talkativeneSs. In fact, Mana
ger Casey Stengel once remarked that Berra forgets
to start the game with the first inning.
Hes out there behind the plate saying hello TO
everybody in sigh" SfenseI said. He added H.. Berra
is a very soeiable fellow. He acts like home plate is
his ROOM"
Anyone who has seen the Yankees play-either
In person or via television-may have observed Berra
talking to various batters or the first baseman after
he reaches the base safely.
Berra was born in ST. Louis, and lived across the
street from Joe Garagiola, who also was a catcher and
who played for the Columbus Red Birds and later the
81. Louis Cardinals.
Both were signed up by professional scouts in
1912. Joe signed with the Cardinals for a $500 bonus.
The Cardinals also wanted to sign Berra but didn't
want to shell out the bonus. The Yankees did and
baseball fans know the rest.
A Holy Name Society member, Yogi now lives in
New Jersey with his attractive wife, Carmen and their
three boys: Dale, 2, Larry, 9, and Jimmy, z. He, Gil
McDougal and other Catholic members of the Yankee
team often attend Sunday Mass together at Madonna
Church In Ft. Lee, which is about two miles from the
Stadium-LvF

Yogi Cares Niche
In Hall of Fame

Whenever baseball fans discuss possible candidates
for Baseball's Hall of Fame the name of Stan 1.-THE
Man Musial Of the st. Louis Cardinals and Ted Will
hams of the Boston Red SoX quickly come to mind.
However, another surefire candidate for that
honor is Lawrence Peter Berra Of the New York
Yankees.
The star Yankee catcher, known throughout the
baseball world as Larry Yogi" Rerra, is like MusiaL,
a devoted family man and dedicated to his Catholic
religion.
Numerous articles have been written about the
hkeable player and many Of them, in attempts to in
ject what writer's call color" have distorted his
proves as a player.
Comments that he looks like a fire hydrant"
gives the reader the idea that he is clumsy behind the
plate. Yogi shattered this notion earlier this season
when he set a record for catchers by going through
LAB games without an error. In these games, he
handled $40 chances.
After he set the record, he commented sit shows
I'm not such a clumsy OK, after all"
1t should be noted for impartialty's sake, that
Berra promptly committed an error in his next game.
Other distortions include that he is slow afoot,
and awkard at the plate. These may be explained
away by his blocky build[ feet 8 inches tall and 1872
pounds.
The truth is that Berra is very fast, in fact one
of the best base runners on the Yankee team.
His batting swing doesn't have the picturesque
quality displayed when Williams or MusiaI takes a
cut, YET Yogi possesses finesse and fine timing.

Cold statistics bear this
out. In his career as a
major league this is his
14th Year, catcher, the
"a year old Berra has
cracked out more than
800 homeruns. This is bet

In finishing second in the
IL, the highest position a Co.
lumbUs feam has finished
since 1850 when the Red Birds
were second in the American
Association, the Jets tipped
off a l0-sarne winning streak.
The Jets started their streak
the week before by defeating
Havana twice and taking a
third win last Monday, 40, ov-
er the Martins.
Manager Cal Ermer's "go-go'
troops then flattened Miami
five times, winning IA, so,
SO, 80, and 10.
Richmond then moved into
town and took it on the chin
twice, TO and 30 before Co
lumbus fell before the Wees,
80.
Highlight of the big streak
was the sterling relief pitch
ing of Don Williams who
saved" at least four victories
for the Jets.
Should Columbus win the
Havana series, the Jets will
then meet the winner of the
Buffalo-Richmond set.
