Former New York Yankee Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra died today at the age of 90. Born in St. Louis, Missouri as the fourth son of Italian immigrants, Berra joined the New York Yankees in 1946 as a catcher. It was there he won 10 World Series Championships. His batting average was .285 and he had a total of 385 home runs in his career. After his last season with the Yankees as a player, he became their manager. He lost that position after the Yankees lost to the Cardinals in the 1964 World Series. After being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1972, the New York Yankees retired his uniform number 8. That same year, Berra became the manager of the Yankees’ main rivals-the New York Mets. He spent the rest of his career managing and coaching MLB teams until his retirement in 1989.

Not only is Berra known for his baseball career, he is also known for his humorous malapropisms called “yogi-isms”. Here are some of them:

1.) “Baseball is 90 percent mental and the other half is physical.”

2.) “When you come to a fork in the road, take it.”

3.) “Always go to other people’s funerals, otherwise they won’t go to yours.”

4.) “You can observe a lot by watching.”

5.) “A nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore.”

6.) “Slump? I ain’t in no slump…I just ain’t hitting.”

7.) “I looked like this when I was young, and I still do.”

8.) “It gets late early out there.”

9.) “I usually take a two-hour nap from 1 to 4.”

And finally… 10.) “I really didn’t say everything I said.”
