However, that was the most amazing thing I've ever seen in the World Series. B.J. Upton gets an infield hit, steals second, steals third, and Philly throws it away at third and he scores. Upton is a beast, and he's from VA. By far the best overall athlete in the Majors today. I'm prepared to stay up all night for this one.

best overall athlete in the majors? hardly

but hes certainly among the fastest and most exciting

he doesnt hit for a high average.......hes got mediocre power......for a guy who isnt a power hitter he strikes out entirely too much

but he can make things happen with his legs and is exciting when he does

I'd love to know who is a better athlete, athletes like Upton just don't play baseball today.

They don't possess the raw athletic ability that Upton does imo.
