Ken Williams problem is that his home/road splits were very Bichette-like. His great 1927 season was something like .422-25-100 at home, .300-14-50 on the road (I don't have the exact numbers, but they're in the Historical Abstract). Plus 1922 and 1925 are the only years he ever lead the league in anything - his numbers look good on the surface but they need to be put into 1920s context. That, along with his short career doom him as a HOFer in my mind.
