I'm sure I'll be the only geek to notice, but those numbers don't add up. It wold take 219 at-bats for 46 hits to yield a .210 average. Divided over 34 games, that would average out to almost 6 1/2 at-bats per game. Seems a little high, even for that era.

He reversed the numbers, 46 games, 34 hits. Old age will do that to you

Jay:

# 1 - I thought all the money you saved by having John and I write bios went towards professional copy editors.
# 2 - My stats at Williams make Jake Wells look like Ty Cobb.
