Red Sox Memories: Greatest outfields in franchise history

Just what were the greatest outfields in Boston Red Sox history? My approach is that the outfield had to remain in place and have a bit more life in baseball years than a mayfly.

The team would also – as one should and would expect – be reasonably successful. That would exclude a large chunk of Red Sox history. The 1920s and 1930s were not exactly the zenith of the franchise’s success. I used a five-year time frame and that certainly exceeds a mayfly and narrows it down. More on that later.

One specific area was the great post World War II Red Sox clubs that featured Ted Williams and Dom DiMaggio.
