Unbelieveable. With his 10th homer in 20 games Baz is the all time RBI leader over Jacoby. I thought I heard Parker say "all time Run leader", now ahead of Ellsbury |

He needs 12 homers to have Big Jim's record from the 80's. That record is considered pretty untouchable because of all the advantages they had back in the day. Jimmy only played in 44 games. it there was a distance award nobody is taking BJW down True but Wilson himself says the fence was lower, the balls were bouncier and the bats had more boom. |

Jimmy only played in 44 games. it there was a distance award nobody is taking BJW down And what advantages? BJW played well before the juiced "rocket" producing bats. That era had almost zero $ support, little if any expert off season training, and as mentioned over 20% less games. BJW didn't hit any balls that the height of the fence came into play. And, "bouncier" balls? Not a thing... lively baseballs are always brought up when offense goes up a little. And never above a normal deviation. "In order to juice balls, MLB (which would include college production) would need cooperation among the cork makers in Mississippi, the yarn spinners in Vermont and the hide sewers in Costa Rica, plus those who test the balls in St. Louis, and the final layers of quality control, the clubhouse attendants who rub them with mud and the umpires who keep a bagful at a time. In other words, juicing the ball would require a complicated conspiracy that a lot of people would have to be in on." |

Never thought a 10 run lead would be our kryptonite

I'm going off what Jim Wilson has said in broadcasts. Go bug him George The balls were harder, but it was before the hot bats. And yes, the fences were lower, but the left field fence at Goss was also at the bag of the bullpen back then. I think JW is selling himself short. |

Stealing home? Nice! If it were only a straight steal, that would have been awesome, but no. Pitch to the backstop, Trosky went, run down, it goes down as a caught stealing. |

I definitely agree that he sells himself short, dude is super humble. I wasn't alive so I'll trust you guys. |
