Where did you see this? Unless their is video of every at bat, there is no way to know where every hit went. When research was done to try and figure out how many HRs Ruth would have had if played until the conditions Jimmy Foxx did when he hit 58 and how many Foxx would have hit in when Ruth hit 60, they had a difficult time finding out exactly where the HR were hit, it would be really interesting to know how someone one was able to plot all his fly balls. Sound like more myth than reality to me.
