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.
Carew(1977) v Gehrig (1931)

Carew(1977) v Cobb (1911)

HR | 14 | 8 | Carew |
RBI | 100 | 127 | Cobb |
BAT | 388 | 419 | Cobb |
|
|
| Cobb 6-2 |
Cobb advances because Gehrig tied.
Cobb will advance unless Hornsby can beat Carew 7-1
Carew(1977) v Hornsby (1922)
| Carew | Hornsby |
|
AB | 616 | 623 | Hornsby |
RUNS | 128 | 141 | Hornsby |
HITS | 239 | 250 | Hornsby |

HR | 14 | 42 | Hornsby |
RBI | 100 | 152 | Hornsby |
BAT | 388 | 401 | Hornsby |
|
|
| Hornsby 7-1 |
Hornsby does it and advances to the championship– (if he would have won 6-2 against Cobb, - he and Cobb would have been tied and I would have to invoke the batting average tie breaking rule and Cobb would have won)
Rogers Hornsby advances to the final and will face the winner of Aaron and Rose
