Until about 1980 there were 8 basic stats on the back of baseball cards. In 1976 I created a tournament among the TSN all-time all-stars – I picked what years I thought were the best years for Ruth(1927) Williams (1941) Cobb (1911) etc… and had them compete. I remember who won - Rogers Hornsby 1922 -I decided to recreate the tournament and expand it to see if Rogers Hornsby 1922 season will still win.
Hornsby(1922) v Gehrig (1931)
| Hornsby | Gehrig |
|
AB | 623 | 619 | Hornsby |
RUNS | 141 | 163 | Gehrig |
HITS | 250 | 211 | Hornsby |
2B | 46 | 31 | Hornsby |
3B | 14 | 15 | Gehrig |
HR | 42 | 46 | Gehrig |
RBI | 152 | 185 | Gehrig |
BAT | 401 | 341 | Hornsby |
|
|
| Tie 4-4 |
Hornsby(1922) v Cobb (1911)
| Hornsby | Cobb |
|
AB | 623 | 592 | Hornsby |
RUNS | 141 | 148 | Cobb |
HITS | 250 | 248 | Hornsby |
2B | 46 | 47 | Cobb |
3B | 14 | 24 | Cobb |
HR | 42 | 8 | Hornsby |
RBI | 152 | 127 | Hornsby |
BAT | 401 | 419 | Cobb |
|
|
| Tie 4-4 |
OK, so no winner between these three so Hornsby, Gehrig and Cobb advance to face Carew or Wagner
