I take “better” as more talented.

No one has been more talented than Shohei Ohtani in the sport of baseball.

Throws 100 mph, insane breaking stuff, and hits 50 bombs a year against pitchers also throwing 100 mph at him, often times seeing 3-4 pitchers a game

Ruth will always be King for Most Accomplished

But it’s okay to think guys 100+ years later are more talented.
This is how I see it. When discussing "who is better" are we going by career accomplishments? Or who is more talented?

Ohtani is more talented. Ruth certainly accomplished more. I don't think either of these are really debatable.
