Trick Question for Trivia
by RussIn Ken Burns’ mini-series “Baseball” the clip of Mickey, Roger and Yogi from that movie is featured. Doris Day yells at the umpire and he comes over to the dugout, believing it was Mantle and tosses him. Doris asks Roger whether the pitch was a ball or a strike, and Roger (wishing to be diplomatic) says: “it could have been high” or something to that effect. Roger gets tossed. Everyone looks to Yogi, who declares that “it was a perfect strike.” The umpire says: “I don’t like sarcasm Berra, you’re out of here too!” Amusing. I’m sure the real life antics of that dugout though were way funnier, however.
