how Yogi has parlayed a lack of aesthetic qualities into a high income. He's one of those endearing ugly guys, like Danny DeVito. People like him. Mossi, on the other hand, no one likes, so he takes a lot of crap. Now, if you look at it objectively, he's got about the same look as Sal Maglie did on game days: all scowl, beard and nose. Of course, the jughead ears put it over the top.

Here's my all-ugly team:

C: Yogi Berra ('nuff said)
1B: Ted Kluszewski (last thing I saw looking like that had bolts in its neck and was trying to pick music out of the air)
2B: Eddie Collins (the face of a child molester with Dumbo's ears)
SS: Honus Wagner (bow-legged, horsey faced)
3B: Ron Cey (ok, a little weak here, but who stole the chipmunks' teeth?)
OF: Babe Ruth (not an attractive man--a barrel on piano legs with a face like a pug), Hank Bauer (once described as having "a face like a clenched fist")
P: Don Mossi
