Which Yankee Legend Threw the Opening Pitch at Yankee Stadium?

And the answer is ...

d) Yogi Berra

Although Reggie Jackson threw the first opening pitch in Yankee Stadium during the preseason, Yogi Berra has the official season claim to fame. A former Yankee catcher, nominated as the MVP of the league an impressive three times, Berra also served as manager and coach to the team over the years. Yet Berra is most remembered for being eminently quotable, with quips including "It's deja vu all over again" and, in regards to a st. Louis restaurant, "Nobody goes there anymore; it's too crowded."
