  Bill Dickey the great Hall of Fame Yankee catcher once called Mantle the greatest baseball prospect he had ever seen. Mantle, the heir to Joe Dimaggio would not disappoint becoming the greatest switch hitter in baseball history with devastating power off both sides. In his 18 seasons Mantle would lead his Yankee teams to 12 World series winning 7 of them.
