Yogi Berra would just shake them off. He swears to this day that Jackie Robinson was OUT. And he was if you watch the clip.
He once stated “ you have to stand there and take your lumps”
If you want to catch in hardball you have to be able to take boucoupe abuse.
True enough. Good enough for Yogi, good enough for me. Sometimes it seems like football out there, though. Of course, at Home the runner is crashing into the most padded guy on the field, so it’s his azz on the line, right?
