Would only one weekend count for your answer? Any of these guys can get hot and have 900+ weekend or even go 1.000. Show me some season stats for my leadoff.

I'll put Steve Edwards in that group as well. But you can't go wrong with any of the ones listed above. Branch was the best leadoff hitter I ever played with, and he always played the game the right way. He never took selfish swings.

Riley was the most impressive this year.

Collins had one of the best Major World Series performances ever this year.

Dedonatis at his peak was the best true singles/doubles type lead off and he fed into 2 hitters like Jeff Wallace and Greg Connell.

Baker and Wegman have had their moments at leadoff where they dominated. Wegman second half of 2019 was the best lead off in the game and won the offensive mvp at the major to cap it off that year.

I believe Steve Edwards has played conference every year since it started.

He started with Columbus Pipe and may have been the fastest player in the league. And he had the best 3-4 hole swing in the game. Then as the years went on he added the power.

Johnny Simpson from the old Marodi’s teams was in my opinion the best pure lead off hitter I’ve ever seen. Couldn’t get the man out.
Then Dixie batting right behind him. A pitchers worst nightmare!!

Dixie was a beast. Cut everything and could murder the middle.
