Pie Traynor If would be safe to say that any of these players could be called baseball's most famous third baseman.
mike schmidt is the best third baseman of all time. 10 golden gloves , 12 mvps, 548 homeruns. nuff said
schmidt was MVP of the NL only 3 times. he was selected as an all-star 12 times. he is certainly one of the top 5 third basemen of all time, and arguably the best in his generation.
Most often you'll get a response of Babe Ruth especially by the stat prone;informed baseball people know Roberto Clemente is the best all around athlete to play that position in the 'modern era'. There's simply not enough profit$$$ in promoting Clemente and until Latinos become the 'money demographic' (don't hold your breath) you'll continue to get Ruthian exaltation
As of the 2008 season, Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson of the Baltimore Orioles is the third baseman that has won the most Gold Gloves with 16.
a-rod probly
Wrong. A-Rod played as a SS through 2003.
The answer as of 12/5/11 is Mike Schmidt. 509 of his 548 career HR came as a third baseman.
I think Mike Schmidt was the best all around third baseman, but we can't leave out Brooks Robinson and Clete Boyer as the best feilding third basemen..!
