    error in baseball almanac?

    http://www.baseball-almanac.com/feats/feats10.shtml

    Yogi Berra
    8 C 1972
    Bill Dickey
    8 C 1972

    how come #8 retired twice in 1972?

    Probably because both Berra and Dickey had worn #8.

    interesting history....baseball was a lot more rougher back then

    It has been said that Ed lost his index finger in a bench clearing brawl when Ty Cobb bit his finger off at the knuckle.
