I think you are right, and you have to go all the way back to Ruth's time!
You have to go back to 1928, when Ruth had 54 HRs and Hack Wilson had 31 to find a lead of 20 or more. Jimmie Foxx got close in 1932 when he had 58 Home Runs and Babe Ruth had 41. The following year Foxx bested Ruth again 48 to 34. But the biggest difference by far was in 1920 when Babe Ruth hit 54 (besting his previous record of 29) and George Sisler only hit 19. Ruth led the League by double digits 7 times. I think the last double digit lead was in 1977: George Foster with 52 and Jeff Burroughs with 41. Last edited by cgjackson222; 09-10-2022 at 12:43 PM.
