Talk:Home Run Baker

Untitled

So, how many home runs did "Home Run" Baker hit? I believe it was laughably small, compared to the Babe Ruth era that followed. Please tell us. 68.164.171.39 08:55, 21 August 2006 (UTC)Red Spot

96 in the regular season. 3 in the World Series. Read the article to learn how he got the nickname. Kingturtle 13:09, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

He hit his homers during the "dead ball era" of major league baseball. Follow the history of the game before passing judgment. The shrinking strike zone, "juiced" baseballs and steroids has totally cheapened the homerun. EdwardG 16:30, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment

Authenticity check: A search reveals that the phrase "regarded by many" appears in the text. Is the phrase a symptom of a dubious statement? Could a source be quoted instead? Perhaps the "many" could be identified? Might text be edited to more genuinely reflect specific facts?
