Red Sox LFs: An Unprecedented Run

The Red Sox have had 8 LFs since 1939:

Teddy Ballgame (1939-1960)
Carl Yaz (1960-1975, moved to 1B/DH)
Jim Rice (1975-1987)
Mike Greenwell (1987-1996)
Wil Cordero (1997)
Troy O'Leary (1998-2000)
Manny Ramirez (2001-2008)
Jason Bay (2008-present)

Very impressive considering two of the eight played 3 years or less.

Oh, those Red Sox left fielders! Circa 2007
