identify7Im sorry that you conclude that the 19th Century players do not fit, Jay.
My thinking is that they fit better than modern players. Look Jay, look at the numbers.
Delahanty .346 ......... Cobb .367
Kittridge .217 ......... Bergen .170
Ward 2.10 ............. Walsh 1.82
Sullivan 5.14 .......... Hogsett 5.02
There is not much difference, Jay. Particularly with the pitchers.
Nobody today is putting these type of numbers together. And they haven't for a long time.
Edited to spell Malachi Kittridge's name correctly.
