“Billy Martin, who died Christmas night in a pickup truck accident, will be remembered by the public as a New York Yankee. But the former player and manager first came to athletic prominence and achieved his last real success in the East Bay. A multisport star at Berkeley High in the 1940s, Martin was first noticed by professional baseball on the Oakland and Berkeley sandlots.”
