Yogi Berra dies: It’s over
The man who told the sports world, “It ain’t over ’til it’s over,” has died.

Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra was a 15-time All-Star and three-time American League MVP as a player and is regarded as one of the very best catchers in the history of the game. But he became legendary as a manager, when he would tell sports writers, “I really didn’t say everything I said, ” “It’s déjà vu all over again,” “You can observe a lot by watching” and “”It doesn’t matter if you’re ugly in this racket. All you have to do is hit the ball, and I never saw anyone hit with his face.”
“Yogisms” became a staple of baseball lore, as important as Berra’s legendary career as a coach and manager. In his baseball career, from player to manager, Yogi Berra was a part of 21 World Series and won 13 of them. He was the catcher for Don Larsen’s perfect game in the 1956 World Series, and he holds many records as a catcher.
Yogi Berra spent most of his career with the New York Yankees, but also played for the New York Mets. He coached and managed a number of teams, the Yankees and Mets chief among them.
Born in May 12, 1925 in St. Louis, MO, Yogi Berra was 90 years old when he passed away Tuesday, September 22, 2015.
Apparently it’s over for Yogi Berra — he will be missed.

We are not the typical news website – nor do we wish to be. We will be offering more than news and blogs, but an opportunity for fiction writers, poets, comedians and musicians to showcase their talent and skills. Much like when the Beatles formed Apple Corps Ltd, they opened the door to all kinds of inspiring talent that never really got a shot. From that came the likes of James Taylor and others. We hope by providing a similar approach we can shine the light on some tremendous undiscovered talent and at the same time offer some familiar voices who live in Los Angeles and beyond.
