IMO, Best catcher ever. Yogi might have had better stats but Johnny could call a game better than anyone.
Johnny used to live in Rancho Mirage and would frequent a hole-in-the-wall hamburger joint in Cathedral City where he would hold court and tell stories, sometimes for hours. Funniest guy in baseball and a down-to-earth humble guy. Never forgot his Oklahoma roots. In my book he’s all aces.
