How is this for Ruth's career HR totals?

Used the Arod/Garlon db for a test today. Here is a look at Babe Ruth's career. Kind of wish he had hung around just long enough to hit one more homer.

edit- Hope it is not too blurry. I had to shrink it down to get under the size limit.

He even ended with the Braves.

If you look closely though, '28 was a complete wash and 4 other years were cut short. '33 especially hurt him, 20 hrs thru 57 games...probably would have finished on par with what other people are getting 900+.

That was with injuries still on Low correct Tiger? Seems like even on low, players like Ruth, Ty Cobb, Ted Williams all suffer major injuries in everyone's historical replays.

Nope. This one had injuries set to normal. However, I am a betatester so there may have been some differences in my .exe file compared to the released version.

Cobb or Ruth never got hurt bad in my sim (still not through Williams career) But Cobb was never really good. He had 3 good years near the start of his career, but after that the only stat he could lead the league in was k's He ended his career with 2907 hits (not at all terrible but certainly not Cobb like) and struck out 2500 or so times (which is the all time record in my league). He didn't get elected to the Hall either.

Ruth was kinda the same way, but only because he got platooned for 2/3 of his career, the 4 years he did play full time he was amazing, but it was only enough to get him 487 career HR's and not enough to get him in the hall.
