Wink Here are the numbers......

AB Hits Homers BA RBI
Ted Williams 7706 2654 521 .344 1839

Babe Ruth 8399 2873 714 .342 2211

Mickey Mantle 8102 2415 536 .298 1509

Lou Gehrig 8001 2721 493 .340 1995

Joe Dimaggio 6821 2214 361 .325 1537


Look at those numbers and I wonder why the hell Dimaggio is in the Hall at all! I can name a few players with much better numbers who should be in but never will be! As far as the other players number of at-bats and the homer, hit, BA, and RBI and Williams had it all over them........what say you Ron? Add to that the fact that Williams missed those five years.....don't want to hear about Mantles drinking and Dimaggio's injuries.....Mantle made a choice to drink (his problem) and Dimaggio's injuries....hey, it happens!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
