Chris,

Reb was probably the first steroid abuser in baseball, what else could explain this batting anomally. Imagine that, steroids pre 1930 (for those that didn't get it, that was a joke).

That was an interesting fact about a somewhat obscure player. After reading the post I had to look at his pitching stats. He had a pretty good rookie season going 22-16 with a 1.91 ERA in 1913 (Chicago AL). Lifetime 81-59 (.579) with a 2.34 ERA.
