How does the split of a DH for AL and not for NL exist today, when MLB adopted the universal DH in 2022 meaning NL has also had DH since then?
@dirtaylulu3 hat sizes!!
@360WIZRight off top I have to disagree. People weren't bored with the dead ball era of baseball, they just found out that they liked Homeruns more.
@GuitarBrain4uPicture of Babe Ruth under white only is hilarious
@QLivin8:57 Why show the nationals logo instead of the senators
@Nintendad4987Why is black people so hated for no reason 😂 just for existing
@leoramos50Cool no effort AI video with constant misinformation being narrated by a robot
@CasperTheGhost64S/o Ricky branch
@Four__768Back in my day we would spit all over the ball and throw a pitch we called the "snot rocket" had to be slick tho and not get caught
@conflict7269Garbage lmaoo , catchy lil race baiter headline too 🚮
@Sperleazy11god using AI art is gross, be better man
@kdenKirahYou gotta mention the 1940's with Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio and Stan Musial. And they missed time due to military service.
@flame-sky7148This is ai slop. How do i know? Your bot messed up and said "threehun sixty six".
@Windex1337Jackie Robinson receiving 'hostility' is highly exaggerated. He had a small amount of ignorant people, but most respected him, and Dodgers fans loved him. Larry Doby talking about his integration shows this...anyway, Integration period before the pitching friendly era was the best era IMO. Lots of balls in play, less Ks and BBs with a good number of HRs and doubles. The 70s and 80s were good but you could see the cracks starting to show in baseball. Nowadays it is just 'more rules to make the game faster' which actually makes games longer
@TheImapotatoToo bad this voiced by AI. Also you make it sound like baseball was the only thing that had racism in the time period. It was everyone not just in the sport
@hunterdebeau23184:24 had no idea the voice was AI until the “home…… runs” haha. Still a fun video! Great job!
@awesome-sauce-f9iLate 90s was Steroid era everywhere, in all sports
@Fernando-zptPeople weren't suspicious it was the cry baby sport writers that were suspicious just because the players were "mean to them" so they made it their mission to destroy their careers even though the sport was popular and making MILLIONS.
@thetimehascome93Making Barry bonds the face of the roid era when he was already the best player in the league is crazy mf just hate black ppl
@freetherealkeeptherestLet's be honest
Ken Griffey Jr. saved baseball after '94
Shame on you for not bring up that while McGuire and bonds were chasing the home run record so was he and doing it ALL NATURAL 🎉
2:44 that Oakland coliseum shot 😮💨
@mauriciorosas366I’m personally a very dead ball kind of guy, especially while playing the game. Getting big hits without power, and stealing a base every here and there can be very effective and when done right, can generate a very high winning percentage.
@matthewcioletti5314Great video! Really well done. Are you using AI for the voiceover? That's the only disappointing part if true.
@TommyRoseVOSome of the best players weren't allowed to play. Not all of them.
@zeldafreak1975Baseball has been unwatchable since about 2017. This is coming from a former die fan from about 1993 to 2016. That is all.
@HT-sm9dmA bit wokey. Not very accurate
@neematavakoli4350Babe Ruth was passing for Whyte
@jsanders9975👋🏻😃👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻😃👋🏻☝️☝️☝️🌎☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️😃☝️👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
@MiguelSerrano-jr9pdNothing happened in baseball between Ruth and Robinson?
If breaking the race barrier increased the talent pool, why did expansion 10 years later dilute it despite a 35% talent expansion and only a 15% team expansion?
Baseball games start to late. Start the game at 4pm not 8pm
@lavarivy2259fun and WELL PRESENTED !!!!
@bnthernDeadballl era ended when a player died by being hit by a baseball in the head.
@TomboKaiOfficialNow, we have clocks & I don't like it!
@JamalSampson11Ty Cobbs career average is not one of the highest, it's the highest all time average
@decker528It wasnt just cosches goinf by gut. It was situstional analysis, it sas a more in depth look at something as a situation uniw to itself where as the sanermetrics look sr numbers and situations as being able to happned again the exact same way and nothing is truly the same. No gsme has wver been the exaxt same things with exact same outcomes. While numbers help with prepararion and adding info to decisions, there is a baseball situations intelligence that is really only inderstood by guys like la russa lou pinella, jim leyland. I hope they bring back the chess side of baseball, putting runners in morion, knowing every option available in every situation, its become robotic and systematic.
@chrislewis5069Mike piazza as a stwroid before and aftwr isnt the best example. He wasnt linked to it and his numbers were better as a dodger rhan a a met
@chrislewis5069Steroids were already being used bt somenplayers before the 1994 strike.

@BoTheshow-21Sounds like every American sports history to me 🤯
@TheKlown82AI Slop
@DannyJeremiasThumbnail 😂😂😂
@clarencesmith467Why have American blacks deserted baseball? I've been saying for years it's largely for 2 reasons, very connected.
First, with college sports getting hugely profitable, there were more and more scholarships over football and basketball.
Secondly, those scolarships did not go to baseball, not a big college money maker. Ergo MLB signees not MLB ready had to go to very small cities mostly rural and not all very tolerant.
So you can have to grow up early and go someplace you're not entirely antef, or, if you are good, extend your adolescence in an at least less angry environment.
IMHO, bingo.
As for the move against shifts most lefties arw encouraged to constantly pull as hits there make runner advancing more likely.
If you ran to the left instead of the right after you hit, it would be the other way around.
But lefty averages got very low. So they took the easy way out.
