Did Johnny Bench or Carlton Fisk have a better baseball career?
Johnny Bench and Carlton Fisk are two of the greatest catchers in baseball history. Both players had long and successful careers, but who had the better career?
Bench was a 14-time All-Star and 10-time Gold Glove winner. He was also the National League MVP in 1970 and 1972. Bench was a key member of the Big Red Machine, which won two World Series titles in the 1970s.
Fisk was a 11-time All-Star and three-time Gold Glove winner. He was also the American League MVP in 1972. Fisk was a key member of the Boston Red Sox, which won two World Series titles in the 1970s.
So, who had the better career, Bench or Fisk? It's a tough question to answer, but I think Bench has a slight edge. He was a more complete player, and he played on a more successful team.
