Geocache Description:

With the baseball playoffs coming up, I was thinking of some of the great ones from the past. You will find ol' number 7 along the Yuba City levee, a little south of the Peach Bowl Little League complex.

This young fella from Oklahoma played 18 years for the Yankees, and was the greatest switch hitter I ever saw. He won three AL MVP titles, played in 16 All-Star games, played on 12 pennant winners, and seven World Series Champion clubs. He holds the record for most World Series home runs (18), most walk-off home runs (12 in regular season, and 1 in postseason play), and hit 536 career home runs. In 1956 he won the Major League Triple Crown...with a .353 batting average, 52 home runs, and 130 runs batted in. Yes, indeed, he was one of the finest center fielders of all time.
