Baseball legend and Hall of Famer, Yogi Berra, has passed away at the age of 90.  The news was reported by the Yankees and the Yogi Berra Museum, both citing natural causes as the reason for his passing.

Berra, best known for his time with the Yankees and unforgettable quotes, played 19 seasons in Major League Baseball. He was a 10 time world series winner as a player and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1972.

Not only did Berra make a name for himself as a power-hitter and one of the best catchers in baseball history, he also managed the Yankees for a year after playing 18 seasons with them.  From there he joined the New York Mets first as a coach and later as a manager.  The Yogi Berra Museum in New Jersey is dedicated to the cause of teaching children not only the history of the legend himself, but also the principles of good sportsmanship and dedication.
