DOG ASIDE:
The New York Yankees won their 3rd World Series in a row under Mgr Casey Stengel against their cross-town rival New York Giants managed by Leo Durocher. There were a total of 11 players, managers and umpire who participated in the 1951 World Series that became future members of the Hall of Fame as follows:…….Umpire:Al Barlick…..Yankees – Casey Stengel (mgr.), Bill Dickey (coach), Yogi Berra (catcher), LF Joe DiMaggio, CF Mickey Mantle, 1B Johnny Mize & SS Phil Rizzuto…..Giants – Leo Durocher (mgr.),RF Monte Irvin & CF Willie Mays. To say that the 1951 World Series provided one of MLB’s all time star-studded cast….would be a serous understatement.
