Dude come on, this was an absolutely perfect list before you boneheadely (yes I made a new word) put Berra ahead of Bench. Seriously. Zero effort to back this up.
Bench’s defense far outweighs Berra. Not even close.
Bench also led a dynasty for a decade and was the best player and leader on those teams at least half the decade. Berra was never the best player on those teams.
Rewrite that last line. Berra was never the best player on his team, yet he won 3 league MVP awards while the Yanks were winning 5 consecutive WS titles. Dimaggio was at the end of his career. Mantle was just starting and not the force he would become after '55. One handed catching is your argument??

I actually think I laid out why I did it. The stats are not that far off. Take playoffs into account and Berra gets huge leg up.

Bench pioneered one handed catching.
