As everyone knows, we are in the middle of a great World Series, football season has started, and basketball season is about to start. As I was thinking of all this, something fun popped into my mind. How would I construct an All Time Team for baseball, football, and basketball? I would do hockey, but to be honest with you I never really got into hockey well enough to know the greatest of the great. By far, baseball was the hardest for me to choose just because of it's rich history. None of them were easy teams to choose. What I did was go by era and who was the best at each position and narrowed it down from there. Are you ready to see my All Time Teams for those 3 sports? Lets Go!!!
First up is baseball. As we all know, baseball is so rich in history dating back over 120 years so this was the toughest for me. The hardest two positions to pick from were OF(more specifically CF) and catcher. Here we go:
C Johnny Bench
1B Lou Gerhig
2B Jackie Robinson
3B Mike Schmidt
SS Honus Wagner
LF Babe Ruth
CF Willie Mays
RF Ted Williams
This is just my lineup. I also came up with a starting rotation and a closer. The rotation was also hard to choose from because of the abundance of great pitchers in this game. Here's my starting rotation:
SP Sandy Koufax
SP Bob Gibson
SP Christy Matthewson
SP Pedro Martinez
SP Randy Johnson
CL Mariano Rivera
Manager: Tony La Russa
I know that people have the right to disagree with me, but this is my All Time baseball team. If I ran this team out on the field(obviously everyone in their prime), I believe that they would give me the best chance to win. This is part 1 of 3. The other 2 parts will be coming shortly!
