OK Phooge didn't like this one so here's his latest
Five members of the 1951 Yankees were born in SF. Also a coach. Another was born in Berkeley and another in Mill Valley. Name them. Another was born in the Northwest but graduated from a San Francisco high school.
Extra credit for their HS's.
Billy Martin, proud feisty son of Oakland.
I think DiMaggio was still a Yankee in 1951.
Gil McDougald?
Frankie Crosetti was the coach, I think. Or Tony Lazzeri.
I'll say the high schools were Lowell, Tech, Galileo, St. Ignatius, Riordan and Sacred Heart. And California.
Yikes. Billy Martin was a native son of West Berkeley (the west side of San Pablo Av.) He graduated from Berkeley High.
What bar did Billy Martin spend most afternoons drinking with the manager during the 1981 strike?
The Kings X on Piedmont?
The Hotsy Totsy Club on San Pablo?
Maybe my favorite hangout after work in the late 70’s - The NoName Bar on Broadway
