Your list looks good to me. When Joe Torre played his 6 seasons with the Cardinals he played third base and the catcher was primarily Ted Simmons. His 1971 season was extraordinary when he batted .363 and flirted close to .400 for awhile. He stayed really hot that season. The Cardinals finished second in the East and the Pirates won it all.
@ amazing to me how the election committee will include some and exclude others. Thanks for watching. If you haven’t already, please consider subscribing. Thanks!!
Another good list. I have to say I had to think hard about who would be on the list when I saw the title. I always try and guess to see how close I can get to your list and this was a tough one. The only name I could really really come up with on my own was Torre but you picked some winners! Excellent job! A belated Merry Christmas & a happy & healthy new year to all!
Did you say career batting average of .348?!? Wow, that’s pretty amazing! The ‘60s were well before my time, but I love your list! Another great video!
@@derekfnord gallery was rather good, he hit 117 HR’s and had roughly 400 each of RBIs and runs scored. I nearly went with him but decided on Roseboro instead because of his 2 gold gloves. Thanks for watching!!!
@@big8dog887 lol. Mc carver was good, Uecker was funny. I am concerned that I might have forgot someone, but it wasn’t either of those two. Thanks for watching!! 😎

@@larryloveless2967 thanks, and thanks for all of that great information!!
Another great video! Very informative Steve! Thanks! Have a great day!⚾️
@@markcarpenter4469 thanks Mark. I always enjoy seeing that one of my original subscribers is still watching.
Freehan definitely earned his ranking for the 1960s!
@@tommayrant2279 thanks for watching.
Tigers had some solid players, Cash, Kaline, Northrup. I'm glad they won one.
Bill Freehan deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. No question about it. It's a shame that still has to be debated. Clearly out ahead of the others.

@@ghill628 I’m impressed that you could come up with anyone without doing some research. Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas to you also. 🎅🏻

@@thefootballguyusa7941 no sir, .348 for the one season. Thank you for the kind words and thank you for watching John.
Joe Torre was an iconic Yankee Manager.
@@timzusa yes, I am not a Yankees fan, but he built quite a team there.
Bill Freehand should be in the Hall of Fame!!!!
@@RB30862 I think that you’re correct!! Thanks for watching.
those are some mighty ball players there 👍
@@johnc.mitchelljr.2716 thank you for watching. 😎
Good list! I think I'd have Tom Haller from the Giants in there, probably in place of Battey. 🙂
Never heard of him, or Battey.

You forgot that guy from the Cardinals who became more well-known as a broadcaster, Bob Uecker, oops, I mean Tim McCarver.

Great list, no Phillies understandably, I think when most people think of the Phillies teams of the 1960s they think of the collapse in 1964. 😟
@@Scaredycat-dad uh oh, that doesn’t sound like a good thing. Thanks for watching.
In that decade no one expected much hitting out of catchers. Bench broke the mold.
Bench was more in the 70s
Yogi Berra broke the mold, although some would argue that Josh Gibson broke the mold.
@@acornsucks2111 especially when the pitchers were so dominant during that decade.
Not a great decade for catchers in the 1960s. Bill Freehan definitely best catcher of the 60s.
I disagree Freehan and Torre should be in the Hall of Fame as catchers.
