Mgr & Player HOF #

Can you name the player and the manager of this player in
which each are in the HOF and they each wore the same
jersey and same # during thier career?

Did these guys play the same position, and one coached the other for much longer than he managed him, wearing a number a bit more than 4 times what he wore as a player?

No to each one.

I was thinking Dickey & Berra, both in HOF, who both wore the same Yankee jersey with the same number "8"

Dickey was the Yankee manager in '46 when Yogi first came up for a cup of coffee. Then, in the 50's Dickey was the 1B coach and wore "33"

Damnit, you are right, I forgot Yog was up that year, I was
going for the Scooter as Dickey broke in w/ #10. TWG YL

I never would have gotten that one. I didn't know Dickey wore 10

I'll bite. How did they wear the same jersey? Sounds a little crowded.

When Yogi first came up he wore 35 and 38. Then, some time after Dickey left as manager, he was given 8. Later, Dickey came back to coach, and since Yogi had 8, Dickey wore 33. #8 was retired for them both in 1972.
