Joe Morgan was a great player but not a good analyst or commentator. He also claimed that Aaron had "way" more RBIs than the #2 guy on the list. The #2 guy is the Babe (which Joe never mentioned). Aaron has 2297, Ruth has 2217. That's not a big difference, especially when you consider that Aaron played 795 more games than Ruth. And if Gehrig hadn't gotten sick, he would easily have held a virtually unbreakable record (he retired with 1995 and many more years of playing time ahead of him).
Yep, Joe Morgan was lying as easily as he was breathing last night -- his specialty, along with interjecting race into nearly every conversation. Did he really think that no one watching the game would know those stats?
As far as RBI per 162 games Aaron doesn't even make the top 25 -- Gehrig leads at 149, followed by Hank Greenberg at 148, Ruth and Dimaggio 143, Manny Ramirez 136, Juan Gonzalez 135, Jimmy Foxx and Al Simmons 134, Ted Williams and Albert Belle 130, Hack Wilson 128, etc.
Aaron's down the list a bit at 114 RBIs/162 games, and as I mentioned earlier Bonds is at 110.
