My first instinct was that Ruth wasn't included because, technically, his career began in the dead ball era. But even if that were a consideration (it shouldn't be), and you excluded the Bambino's pre-1919 ribbies (111 per BBR), that leaves him with 2,103 from opening day of the '19 season going forward.
So, who the hell knows.
