Default Mr. Burns' Ringers

Posted By: Troy Kirk

I was just rewatching an old episode of the Simpsons called "Homer at the Bat." In the episode, the nuclear plant softball team is going to play the Shelbyville softball team and Mr. Burns makes a million dollar bet on the game. To ensure he will win, he wants to bring in a team of ringers. Here is the lineup he wants to use in the big game:

1B Cap Anson
2B Nap Lajoie
SS Honus Wagner
3B Pie Traynor
C Gabby Street
LF Shoeless Joe
CF Harry Hooper
RF Jim Creighton
P 3 Finger Brown

After being informed that all of the players he wants have already passed away, Burns brings in some modern ringers. But just for fun, let's see some baseball card pictures of Burns' original ringers.
