Default Including the Catcher What Is the Best Infield of All-Time

Posted By: Joe_G.

How about the 1886/87 Detroit Wolverines . . .

C - Charlie Bennett
1b - Dan Brouthers
2b - Hardy Richardson
SS - Jack Rowe
3b - Deacon White

All but Charlie put up solid offensive numbers, many times 3 of them taking posession of top 5 in the League for hits, runs, etc. Charlie was sufficient batter but absolutely excelled defensively. In fact as a team, Detroit posted best fielding percentage in 1886 & 1887. So they are my obvious choice

Best Regards,
