All of your statistics are quite interesting, thank you for laying them out for our perusal, john/z28jd. There is not much which can be offered in rebuttal of your assessment if you do not consider the fact important that McGuire has been the most productive home run hitter in the history of the game thus far.

To me, and many others home runs are important. And to be the greatest home run producer ever, and get so little press for it, is indicative of being underrated.

Similarly McGuire's multi-year home run hitting binge is unequalled, in the estimate of some, by anyone's hitting performance outside of Hornsby. Im not sure if I agree with that. I guess it depends on how you value a home run.
