All-Time MLB Outfield Fielding Percentage Leaders

Career totals, every season from 1871–2026. Share of chances handled cleanly at outfield

Single-season leaders →

Jon Jay is the all-time MLB leader in outfield fielding percentage with .996, 1 point clear of Darryl Hamilton (.995). He did it in 12 seasons, from 2010 to 2021. The top ten runs from .996 down to .994.

Career rate stats are limited to players with 1,000+ games at the position, the usual bar for all-time rate leaderboards. That is a raw total rather than a share of the schedule, so it falls unevenly across eras. Negro League seasons ran roughly 25 to 70 games against 154 or more in the American and National Leagues, and exactly one Negro League fielder reaches 1,000 games at a single position. The outfield is also one position here rather than three: the source splits left, centre and right into a file this site does not load, so an outfield board mixes the three corners together.
