Brimming with immense natural talent, shortstop Robin Yount was just eighteen years old when he was first called up to the Milwaukee Brewers in 1974, immediately becoming one of the youngest regulars in baseball history.
Yount ends the year with 114 RBI and joins teammates Cecil Cooper (121), Gorman Thomas (112), and Ben Oglivie (102) as only the 2nd foursome since 1940 to top the 100 RBI mark: The 1977 Bosox of Fisk, Rice, Hobson and Lynn were the others.
Yount drives home another five in game 2, including his 20th homer of the season, but it is not enough as New York wins, 10—8.

Cal had more power; Yount ran much better; Cal had an awesome arm; I think Robin was the better hitter overall; Robin was a good defensive SS while Cal was very good; both had intangibles in that they were unsung team leaders.
When he moved to CF he proved to be a gold glove stud for several more seasons at the new position.
That's why I didn't say the system thought Yount was better...they were COMPARABLE defensively at short, Ripken having the better peak, and Yount was a good defensive CFer in his twilight whereas Ripken was a mediocre defensive third baseman in his.
