Clemente Pittsburgh Pirates
Can anyone justify Andy Van Slyke being the top vote getter as the Greatest Pirate outfielder-of all-time?
In a recent Fox Sports Net Pittsburgh poll, Andy Van Slyke was voted the greatest Pirate outfielder of all-time (by fans). With players such as Kiner, Clemente, etc....how could anyone justify Andy being the top one?
Greetings from inside the Yahoo Brain in New York City!
Hope you're catching the live webcast at: http://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/asktheplanet/brain.html !
Andy won this the same way Michael Jordan won ESPN's SportsCentury greatest player over Babe Ruth and Wilt Chamberlain--he played more recently. These polls are always skewed towards the most recent times so they can garner the interest of younger fans/viewers. And if those fans are allowed to vote, forget it--then it will be all players who play currently!
Hope this helps!

The 1971 Pirates of Roberto Clemente, Willie Stargell, Bill Mazeroski, Dock Ellis, and Steve Blass are among my all-time favorite teams, and their spectacular World Series win over the Orioles of Earl Weaver, Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Jim Palmer, and Dave McNally is one of the great baseball upsets of the postwar era... |
