Yogi Berra stopped by Bronx Charter School for Children in the South Bronx Thursday afternoon.† The baseball legend met with a small group of students and staff at the high performing K-5 school located less than a mile from Yankee Stadium. The school’s executive director Karen Drezner told me, “The visit was really special because we want our students to understand the history and significance of their neighborhood and, like Yogi Berra, to give back to their community.” Berra didn’t offer up any of his famous “Yogi-isms,” but he did hand out Yankees caps and a big thank you to the students for hosting him.† Check out the photo:
