Sports world reacts to death of Yogi Berra at 90

“He was always there for you in the game. Oh, yes, I'll miss him. Anybody would miss Yogi. It was a lot of fun when he jumped in my arms. I thought something was going to happen there. I enjoyed that. We had good times together. It was always fun being around him and with him."

Don Larsen, the Yankee pitcher who worked with Berra for his perfect game in the 1956 World Series:

"My family and I very much mourn the passing of Yogi Berra. We of course admired Yogi's contribution to the game.
