Yogi was a good manager, also. If I'm not mistaken he led the Mets to a World Series championship.
He was a gunner's mate on a ship off the coast of Normandy on D-Day, too

Yep and took the Yanks to a Series as well ('64: lost to St. Louis). Nice quick history of Yogi on Wiki:

As an old-head I actually saw Yogi play in person - hated the "Yankees" because they always beat my Tigers but I loved the players, Yogi, Mickey, Moose, Richardson, Elston, etc., ---

Ninety percent of this game is physical, the other half is mental.

Yogis' Mets lost the '73 World Series which were the last games played by the great Willie Mays. Gil Hodges managed the Miracle Mets of 1969, I was a nine-year old Orioles fan and remember that one all too well.
