Book excerpt: Choose a specific year, find your favorite player, or note who won more than one batting or pitching title, but don’t stop there! Compare stats, locate trends, disparities, Triple Crown winners, and one-year wonders. Legends can be found as well as current and rising stars. How good was Honus Wagner, Rogers Hornsby, or Stan Musial? How about Grover Alexander, Sandy Koufax, and Bob Gibson? That list seems too short! Let's add Mays, Banks, Bench, Rose, and Gwynn? Recall the stars of the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s or 1990s? They are all here. While you are at it, find out why Clayton Kershaw, Max Scherzer, Jacob de Grom, Freddie Freeman, Bryce Harper, Ronald Acuna, Fernando Tatis, Jr., and Kyle Schwarber are listed among today's elites. Batting leader categories include HR, RBI, BA, Extra Base Hits, Stolen Bases, and more.
