    What do good hitters of today hit as a percentage of singles?

    This shit wouldn't fly in today's game, would it?

    How about one of my favs, Enzo Hernandez in 1971, 618 ABs, 12 RBIs, 91% SINGLES!, 122 hits, 12 XBHs, OPS .550.

    Yes. They would be looked upon as minor leaguers.

    Burned his uniform during a slump. Kind of an exorcism. Awesome

    How does a .197 hitter get 618 ABs?

    I don’t think Gwynn, Carew and Ichiro would be minor leaguers.

    Probably a scrappy player who was good in the clubhouse and did the little things well. Or some old moronic cliche.

    Correct. I was more referring to the Griffins of the world.
