Everyone generally agrees Ruth is by far the best player ever to play baseball, but I just have to ask, if minorities were allowed to play in the Major Leagues during Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and Rogers Hornby's time, would their stats have been as good? Ever since the 50's after Jackie Robinson, haven't the best hitters been minorities? (Aaron, Mays, Robinson, Clemente, Gwynn, Griffey Jr., Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, etc.) I wonder how Ruth would have done against all the best players in the country (and the world), not just against the best white players.
