We're looking for the best of 20 seasons of baseball on ESPN.

We asked you to help us narrow down the field for the best players and managers during 20 years of baseball on ESPN. The first round of voting is complete, and we've got the three finalists you selected at each position. Now it's time to pick the winners.

For this week's edition, three of the finest modern-era left fielders square off. The winner will be announced this week on Sunday Night Baseball (New York at Philadelphia, 8:05 p.m. ET, ESPN). On Sept. 14, you'll have a chance to vote on a center fielder to join the team. The final team will be announced Sept. 20 on Sunday Night Baseball.

Without further ado, the three left fielder finalists you selected:


Barry Bonds

Barry Bonds: This power slugger is a 14-time All-Star selection. He has won the Silver Slugger Award a staggering 12 times, and has taken home a Gold Glove Award eight times. Some of his most impressive achievements include his MLB-record seven NL MVPs (to put that in perspective, the next-closest competitor has three), and the 762 home runs he hit in his career.


Rickey Henderson

Rickey Henderson: Some of Rickey's MLB records include 1,406 career stolen bases, 2,295 career runs, 81 career leadoff home runs and 130 stolen bases in a single season. If that's not impressive enough, he also was selected for the All-Star team 10 times, won two World Series and was the AL MVP in 1990. It must also be noted that he was selected into the Baseball Hall of Fame on the first ballot.


Manny Ramirez

Manny Ramirez: Manny is a 12-time All-Star selection and has won the Silver Slugger Award nine times in his career. He has also won two World Series (2004, 2007), and was crowned the World Series Most Valuable Player in 2004. Manny led the AL in RBIs in 1999, batting average in 2002 and home runs in 2004.
