Don't ask about Ruth, it wasn't pretty (short 13-year injury plagued career in which he finally went down in 1928 due to a CEI. He did sport a career BA over .300 though, despite never ever developing much power - his best year saw him only knock in 17 HR's)
Everyone else is fair game to ask about...
BTW.... Ted Williams rang up a career .486 AVG! He's the best ever in this fictional little world I simmed.

.486? My god.
As a Padres fan it is always my obligation to ask about one Mr. Tony Gwynn. Since this went to 2050 I also wouldn't mind hearing about Peavy.
