Former teammates love seeing him at the annual Old Timers Game at Yankee Stadium. (Above), Mel Stottlemyre, who was the rookie pitching star on the pennant-winning '64 Yankees, managed by Berra. (Below) next to Whitey Ford, who threw so many clutch pitches that Yogi caught during the '50s and early-'60s.
When these two teammates stand on the field at Old Timers Day, we're transported across the street when numbers 8 and 16 were cornerstones of the dynasty that formed the first baseball memories for many of us baby-boomers.
