Check the "book". Rain outs and train travel==less games

So rain out accounted for dropping the regular season from 154 to 124 games a year? I checked a few years here and just don't see that huge of a disparity. Perhaps a game or two a year.

Now, if you want to compare efficiency, Ruth hit a home run every 11.75 AB's while Bonds has hit 1 every 12.9 AB's. Aaron hit one every 16.4 AB's. That's a better way to compare instead of games per season IMHO.
