Hall of Famer Yogi Berra was famous for two reasons: being an 18-time All-Star and three-time MVP for the New York Yankees, and dropping perfectly imperfect Yogi-isms.
In 1973, while managing the last-place New York Mets, Berra was asked by reporters if the pennant race was over for his club, and he famously replied, "It ain't over 'til it's over." Berra's Mets went on an incredible late-season rally, ultimately winning the National League East crown and reaching the World Series in a comeback for the ages.
