Exactly how many times were you dropped on your head as a child? You are brain damaged.

This thread is a bunch of crap IMO

The above was an every-home series occurrence when Berkman played center. Probably greatest of all time and anyone who says otherwise is full of horse manure.

I wish I could get to em at work but Ken Griffey Jr had some pretty phenomenal catches. Not better than Mays I dont think but some really good catches nonetheless.

The Willie Mays catch was probably one of the first catch like that on video and he was one of the only black players in the league at the time. So for him to make that play held a lot more weight than some random great catch now.

As far as the catch itself. I just rewatched the WM catch and that is an amazing catch. The ball goes directly over him and he is on a dead sprint. Caught it like a WR.

Is is the best all time "no" That goes to the Cubs fan that got the blame for ruining the Cubs chances to go to the WS

Care to add anything of significance to the thread? There are some really good arguments in this debate and you don't bring anything to the table. Either join in the fun and make a point or GTFO.

Jim Edmonds had great hands and made a ton of great catches but he wasn't very fast and wouldn't even get to balls mays would.

And about that Ben revere catch. Fantastic catch. If you only consider what's in that gif its one of the best I've ever seen. But he broke in and then back. If not for that he could have coasted under that ball.
