-AVAILABLE IN 2 SIZES-
- Jackie Robinson & Yogi Berra, two Baseball Legends in their own right, share one of baseball’s most unforgettable moments. Together these two created some magic (and controversy) in Game 1 of the 1955 World Series. Down two runs with Whitey Ford on the mound, Jackie broke from third upon Ford’s pitch. Yogi stepped forward, caught the pitch and laid down the tag. “SAFE!” signaled Umpire Bill Summers (as pictured). Well…let’s just say Yogi did not agree with the call as evidenced by his subsequent tantrum. The Yankees hung on to win the game but lost the Series. And Yogi hardly went a day without protesting that Jackie was out until his passing at age 90. He even argued with President Obama about it!
