IT'S BABE RUTH PERIOD.
Discusssion over. No other player will play both positions as he did again. HE DOMINATED THE GAME LIKE NO ONE ELSE DID or will. About 10 other guys will have 500 HR's around the same time BONDS Did. DOMINATION is having more HR's than some entire teams.
Start another thread when BONDS pitches 30 consecutive scoreless innings in the WORLD SERIES (FOR BOSTON as well).
Bonds .299 career batting avg. RUTH .342.
He spent 4 years pitching full time with never more than 136 at bats (ADD 3 more years of HR's to his stats) an easy 100 more to boot. In his 3 years of only pitching he was 18-8, 23-12, and 24-14 lead the league in ERA 1916 as well.
CASE CLOSED.
IT is the HOUSE THAT RUTH BUILT as well, no one else built SHIT.

Are you on Drugs today?
Ruth played in an era where people didn't hit HR's because the parks were enormous... the Balls were not juiced and the wood in bats were not as good..
He also played in an era where the mounds were higher making hitting much more difficult... If Ruth played today he would be the best player in the league IMO...
He didn't have the enhancements...
