: Poor Buckner...I still maintain that Mookie Wilson would have beat Bob Stanley to first base even if Buckner had come up with the ball...
Seriously. He was the most talented non-star ever. Gimmie a team of Mookies, anyday. Hit just over .300, great glove, great arm, stretching doubles into triples, stealing bases... a little power when he needed it... and MISTER Clutch.
