Yogi Berra was an American professional baseball catcher, coach, and manager, widely regarded as one of the greatest catchers in the history of Major League Baseball (MLB). Born on May 12, 1925, in St. Louis, Missouri, he played 19 seasons, primarily for the New York Yankees, winning 10 World Series championships. Berra was known for his exceptional defensive skills and ability to hit in clutch situations. In addition to his athletic achievements, Yogi Berra was famous for his humorous and often paradoxical quotes, known as "Yogi-isms." These sayings, such as "It ain't over 'til it's over," reflected his unique perspective on life and sports. Berra was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1972 and passed away on September 22, 2015.
