RE: Today in History: Babe Ruth sets a record that still stands today
Ah, the great Bambino. It always makes me think of the Sandlot. Such a great movie! He was really one of the best. I might have thought Miggy could have caught him at some point, but he is kind of fizzling out now...
chasing that sort of record is going to depend on so much more than just how good of a hitter the individual is. The players that come before you in the lineup, the team you are against, luck, whether the pitcher is having a good day etc. I bet it will be tied some day, but here we are nearly 100 years later and it still stands.
