The Yankees have announced that they’ll wear a No. 8 on their uniform sleeve for the rest of the season. So far, that is the only announced tribute the team has planned.
Several players have weighed in on Twitter.
Paul O’Neill: “Rest in peace, Yogi. I will never forget our talks together! You are an American hero… I will truly miss you.”
Wade Boggs: “Thoughts and prayers go out Yogi’s family and friends you’ll be dearly missed my friend I guess God needed someone to catch a double header.”
Bernie Williams: “What a Beautiful Man…What A Beautiful Spirit. Celebrate the Life of Yogi Berra Today.”
CC Sabathia: “Blessed to have known you. You are a true hero and legend and will always be in our hearts.”
Alex Rodriguez: “Yogi, I learned so much from you. To a teacher, a friend and a great Yankee, you’ll be missed.”
