We were Dodgers fan (BROOKLYN Dodgers fans) , We will never forget the three great centerfielders of N.Y.C.
("Willie, Mickey and The Duke") Now all three are together forever!

I saw Mickey, Willie DiMaggio and the Duke call centerfield home in four NY ballparks. It was a pleasure, and, looking back, an honor.
Willie would play a double header , then go out and play stickball with the kids in the neighborhood.
And that joy in playing the game is how I'll remember him.

You didn't mess with Dale Robertson and William Demarest, The latter retired to live a quiet life as Uncle Charlie in My Three Sons.
