I mean, we had good, even great players before and after, but something about his presence was over-and-above.


Man's in bad shape now.

Frank Robinson was the best ballplayer I've ever seen.

Willie Mays was the best I saw, but Frank's certainly in the discussion.


Best hitter: Ted Williams followed by Stan Musial.


Home run champ: Hank Aaron


Best one-legged player: Mickey Mantle. Can just imagine how great he would've been healthy and didn't use Jack Daniels as his PED.


Pitcher: ? Too many to consider.

Orioles.
What a tradition! Seems like baseball tradition counts more and more as I grow older.
