“If you never heard of Josh Gibson you’re not a baseball fan.”

Yes, that’s what I wrote.

You changed it to knowing stats of negro league players 100 years ago.

I quoted you.

Big difference between knowing stats of negro league players of the 30’s, or MLB players for that matter, and knowing who Josh Gibson was or Babe Ruth.

How do we judge any player from way before we were born? By stats and what contemporaries said about them.

And some people say that you cannot put 2 and 2 together.

I quoted your entire post word for word...twice now. I did not change it.
