Message: [QUOTE="dennismenace, post: 5279571, member: 6158"] This reminds me of how "unfair" comparative parks/statistics are/were. Tony Kubek in his latter career as an announcer once remarked that if Mantle had played in a different park than the "1927 House that built" version of Yankee stadium he would have hit 1000 career homeruns. When I heard that I'm like "What?" And then he went on to explain the vast dimensions of the stadium in Left 407, Left Center 455, Center 461 and right center 407. He went on to explain how many moonshots Mantle hit that were just long flyball outs or doubles or triples. Half of games played at home and he was not a pull hitter for the most part. [/QUOTE]
