Carl Yastrzemski is a Boston institution. The Hall of Famer patrolled the greensward in front of the Green Monster in left field and won seven Gold Gloves. As a hitter, he hit .285 lifetime and blasted 452 home runs in his major league career - 23 years, all with the Boston Red Sox. In 1967, there were two monsters in left field - the green one and Yaz. What a season! Carl hit .326, had 121 RBIs, and hit 44 home runs. He won the Triple Crown and became the AL MVP as he led Boston to the pennant. In looking back over his career, Carl said, "I'm very proud and very pleased of my accomplishments, but I am most proud of that [four hundred home runs and three thousand base hits]. Not [Ted] Williams, not [Lou] Gehrig, not [Joe] DiMaggio did that. They were Cadillacs, and I'm a Chevrolet." But what a Chevrolet! Currently, Carl's legacy continues. Over half a century from Carl's MVP season, Carl's grandson, Mike Yastrzemski, is an outfielder with the San Francisco Giants. This regular season jersey has light, but definite, use.
