Number Thirty-Three: Dom Dimaggio.
Better than his brother Joe.
Dom may not have had his brother's bat nor his brother's panache but he played a mean centerfield. He made the All-Star team seven out of the eleven seasons he was in the game. He didn't have much power but he did lead the league in triples (11), runs (131) and stolen bases (15) in 1950. And he did so while wearing glasses; an inspiration to bespectacled people everywhere.
