Richie Ashburn was my baseball hero. I got to know him pretty well in his later years and the thing he was most proud of was that he had the most hits of any player in the decade of the 50's! Yep, look it up.
I asked him why?
What he said sort of "fits" in this discussion. Something I had never thought of.
He said it was the the best baseball ever played because it was post integration and pre expansion!
