He was unbelievable!
The best catcher I've ever seen!
simply the very best catcher who ever played,tough as nails
I hated him! Sincerely a Phillies fan from the 70s!
I don't like these fake voices the videos all sound the same
The GOAT!!!
He was a great player but nasty if you wanted an autograph to a ten year old (me). Pete Rose was super nice!
Greatest catcher of All-Time (along with Yogi).
GOAT
Twice the distance 254 feet ridiculous. ButBench was a monster great player
