The All Century Team - A Retrospective
Posted By: Anonymous
It would be hard to say anyone was a better fielding catcher than Bench in his prime. But that's only part of the equation. Obviously I never saw Josh Gobson (or Biz Mackey either) but they were supposed to be pretty good fielders as well. Gibson is also reputed to be the greatest slugger in the history of the negro leagues.. Berra could hit and field as well and he was an integral part of around 10 world series champions. When you've actually seen a great player like Bench it is hard to believe anyone could have been as good. However, its also a bit unfair to assume that the players you never saw (regrdless of their reputations etc.) were worse.... IROD also was and still is a pretty amazing fielding and throwing backstop.
