TOP 10 : GREATEST  RED SOX OF ALL TIME

 

1.) Ted Williams
Ted Williams also known as the “Splendid Splinter” or “Teddy Ballgame” is arguably the greatest hitter of all time. He also played his entire career in Boston, from 1939-1960 in which he batted .344, batted in 1,839, collected 2,654 hits, and hit 524 home runs.

3.) Carlton Fisk
Carlton Fisk played for the Red Sox from 1969-1980 as a catcher. He had a career batting average of .269, and recorded 2,356 hits over his career. In 1972, his first full year with the Red Sox, he won the AL Gold Glove at catcher, and the AL Rookie of the Year award. He caught 2,226 career games, more than any other catcher in history, and was an 11 time All-Star.

4.) Cy Young
Cy Young pitched with the Red Sox from 1901-1908 and is revered as one of the best pitchers, if not the best pitcher, in the history of the game. He holds the all time records for wins with 511, 7,355 innings pitched, 2,803 strikeouts, and 749 complete games.

5.) Bobby Doerr
Bobby Doerr spent his entire career with Boston; from 1937-1941. He batted .288 with 2,042 career hits. The Red Sox retired his number 1. He led American League second basemen in double plays five times, he led in put outs and fielding percentage four times each, and in assists three times.

8.) Johnny Pesky
In Fenway Park, the foul ball pole in right field is called “Pesky’s Pole”. According to Pesky, pitcher Mel Parnell coined the nickname because of Pesky’s legendary, controversial home run in 1948 over the fence near the pole; in fact, it may have even hit the pole. That home run was one of only six home runs Pesky ever hit at Fenway Park.

Tris Speaker played for the Red Sox from 1907-1914 with a career average of .345. Speaker got the starting center fielder job in 1909 and was part of the “Million Dollar Outfield” in 1910 along with Duffy Lewis (LF) and Harry Hooper (RF).
