I've often wondered what single season performance should be considered the best ever, keeping in mind the relation to peers' performance and the era in which the numbers were produced. (No, I don't want to hear a bunch of garbage about how Bonds shouldn't be considered because of the doubt around whether he had "help", etc.) Numbers only.
Just off the top of my head (though I had to look up the specific years) I'd rank them: #1 Ty Cobb - 1911 #2 Jimmie Foxx - 1932 #3 Rogers Hornsby - 1922 #4 Babe Ruth - 1921 #5 Hack Wilson - 1930 #6 Joe DiMaggio - 1937 I'm ignoring things like Ted Williams in 1941 (when he hit .406) because it wasn't THAT impressive in relation to his peers, he had the 5th most hits, 4th most RBIs, 3rd most total bases, etc. Anyone have a list of their own?
