Synopsis by Rose of Sharon Winter
This program is part of a series that profiles some of the great names in sports. This episode features Yogi Berra. The MVP catcher for the New York Yankees went on to coach the Yanks, as well as the Mets. Berra may be the only sports hero known as much for what he said as how he played. His famous Yogi-isms -- "It's déjà vu all over again" -- only further endeared him to baseball fans. Archival film clips, photographs, and interviews with those who knew him tell the story of one of the most colorful figures in baseball history.
