We can say the same about The Babe. And what if he hadn't wasted five years as a pitcher. Or had Ted Williams not served five years defending the country in two wars. I love one of Mickey's quotes when he said "if you added all his walk and strikeouts and divided the total by an average of 500 at bats per season he spent 7 years of his baseball career without hitting the ball."
