My friend is a baseball fanatic and statistical genius. He put together this website called BaseballHarmony.com that punches out some cool stats. Thought this community would appreciate them đ

That’s really cool, being a nerd for stats and all! đ€
I donât know that I found many of those to be all that interesting. No offense.
The early 1900âs was full of godly production. And the fact that I donât recognize most of these namesâŠ
Who the hell is Addie Joss and how the hell was he that good and I donât know him
Willie Mays = đ
Shohei…”Hold my đș”
You can have Bonds and RuthâŠgimme Mays all day every day
As impressive as these stats are, most stats from the deadball era are not impressive. They played a different game than post 1920. Different ball, different rules that really made a huge difference.
Ed Delahanty is one part of a trio of franchise players that did something very rare – the only trio of any franchise.
Babe Ruth: The Colossus of Clout, the Sultan of Syphilis, the He-man of Whores. Hit 714 HRs so as to avoid breaking glass vials of cocaine in his back pocket by not having to slide into second base.
B-but Shohei
Robert Maranville looks like the evil dude from Halloweentown
What about Willie Mayes Hayes?!
u/Swishergirl34 you & your friend should join my new community. I just started it today.

Hot take here but ted Williams was the best hitter ever
Pitching is too good nowadays. Hitters will never break those old records from the days when fastballs were 75-80mph.
Willie for the win
Go look up outfield assist single season records – the game was different lol
Hey we have the same Pirate friend! I saw the BH logo and was about to send him: âYouâre at the point of being shared without consent lolâ
These are fun (although I wouldn’t say any of the stats are on a genius level). Tell your friend, sadly, that MLB does not acknowledge the National Association as a major league. And therefore only has 1.02 runs per game.
