The 100 Greatest Baseball Players of the 20th Century Ranked

Using statistics and oral legend, the authors have compiled a list of the 100 diamond dandies of the second millennium. From Babe Ruth to Ryne Sandburg, they provide profiles of baseball players that were selected partly for the statistics and partly for subjective reasons.

"Invaluable and much appreciated"--Midwest Book Review; "a fun book"--ARBA. The authors of this work looked at statistics, the different eras, the "five tools, " and even oral legend in compiling this list. They've ranked the Negro League players and superstars from around the globe alongside the Major League legends.
