Yogi Berra tautology
SPORTS MEDICINE
Definition A term referring to stylised musings by Yogi Berra (1925- 2015), a baseball catcher/folk philosopher who played for the New York Yankees (1946-63).
Nee Lawrence Peter Berra, Berra had a stellar career and is widely regarded as the best catcher in baseball history; nor was he a shabby hitter, covering all areas of the strike zone and often beyond. Berra, who quit school in 8th grade, is to malapropisms and fractured English what Einstein is to physics. His sayings have reached well beyond baseball and warrant inclusion in this work to explain Berra-isms that appear in journal articles, and provide some insight into what makes America tick.
Synonyms Wisdom of Yogi Berra, Yogi Berra philosophy
