Video shows mingling in the dugout with hollywood stars Doris Day, Cary Grant, and his teammates Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle. Watch video
Yogi Berra, the legendary Yankees catcher, Hall of Famer, and accidental philosopher, passed away Tuesday night at the age of 90.
Here's a look at Yogi Berra back in 1962, mingling in the dugout with hollywood stars Doris Day, Cary Grant, and his teammates Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle.
The star encounter came after Berra, Maris, and Mantle made cameo appearances in the movie "A Touch of Mink", that starred both Day and Grant.
The Yankees would go on to win the World Series that year while "A Touch of Mink" would be one of the top five money-making movies of the year.

Berra, who lived for many years in Montclair, is remembered as much for his accomplishments on the field - 10 World Series titles and 15 straight All-Star Games - as he is for his witty personality off the field.
His quotes, including "It ain't over till it's over", made Berra a well-loved cultural icon.
