All-Century Baseball Team

Before Game 2 of the 1999 World Series, Major League Baseball revealed its “All-Century Team.” The team was voted on by more than two million fans from a list of the 100 greatest players revealed at the All-Star Game. The top two vote getters among infielders, top nine outfielders and top six pitchers were added to the team as well as five more added by a panel of experts to reach 30 players. Listed here are 17 of the 18 men who were living at the time of the announcement, missing only Ted Williams.
