Synopsis by Kathleen Wildasin
Hosted by Bob Costas, the documentary Yogi Berra: Déjà Vu All Over Again recounts the extraordinary career of baseball icon, Lawrence Peter "Yogi" Berra. Recalling his boyhood in a poor St. Louis neighborhood, Berra chronicles the obstacles he faced in his early years and how he overcame them. You'll hear about his experiences in the Yankee farm system, his record-breaking achievements, anecdotes about his banter with opposing batters, and his ultimate rise to the Hall of Fame. The catcher's intelligence, character, and determination are portrayed by three celebrities--Joe Torre, Ted Williams, and Billy Crystal--whose statements pay tribute to Berra's greatness.
