That one hit and his pivot on the DP was a prototype that other 2nd basemen of the time measured themselves against. |

How many of their games did you actually see. Some players can't be judged unless you actually see them play over and over again. My family members were big time Brooklyn Dodger fans (they couldn’t believe I followed the Yankees, but the Dodgers moved to LA) and they used to tell me about the boys of summer. Reese's overall play was considered something special and I assume Rizzuto's was too. They were probably put in because of the intangibles that you can’t see by just looking at stats. I seem to remember an old story that some of the Bosox players of Rizzuto’s era said the difference between the Bosox and the Yankees was Rizzuto. As far as being border line HOF, it’s like a HR that scrapes the back of the fence on the way down. It still counts as an hr. |
