Frank Robby may be the most underrated of all the legendary players....he is the only man to hit a ball completely out of Memorial Stadium...off Luis Tiant
When Robinson came to Baltimore in 1966 the Orioles instantly became the class of the American League...
Robinson also the first black manager, while still playing (and managing) for Cleveland in 1975 homered on Opening Day, quite a feet....His career high was just 49 HR's..

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Saw Mays his whole career and he is still argueably the greatest all around player ever. Bonds is pushing him however. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> How is he pushing him? No defense, no speed barely runs to 1st. great great hitter but not a great player.
Rob:
Regarding Bonds, you have to look at his whole career when he had speed and won numerous golden gloves. If you look at his hitting, stolen bases, fielding when he was young, and power, he has been a complete player over the course of his career. Of course, now as he approaches 40, he can't steal much or cover left field like he did when he was in his 20's. That's what I was referring too.
