In reading about Phil Rizzuto and Paradise by the Dashboard Light, I came across a Yogi Berra quote I had never seen before:
Despite Rizzuto’s desire to be near Cora, wives did not come along on Yankee road trips. Years later, on hearing that former teammate Joe DiMaggio was to marry Marilyn Monroe, Yogi Berra quipped, “I don’t know if it’s good for baseball, but it sure beats the hell out of rooming with Phil Rizzuto.”
Indeed.
MLB players get their own rooms now I hear, and there are many Marilyn Monroes for rent that they can afford. LOL. That could explain the H-A splits and HFA.
