Mathewson and Dimaggio overrated? Koufax, Robinson
Posted By: Dr.Koos
The Yankees couldn't win without him. When Williams was going into his yearly, typical September "snooze", Dimaggio was tearing up the baseball, making sure that his team retained any lead built up during the year. As Lazzeri said, "Your team was down by a run, it would be the bottom of the ninth, and then you'd see Dimagg standing in the on deck circle with 2 men on and you KNEW you had every chance in the world to win it right then and there". Throughout his career, Dimaggio's late inning, team down by a few runs batting average and production stats were enormous. He rose to the occassion. PLUS, keep in mind that Joe WAS somewhat of a power-hitter as well, 360+ Homeruns with only 360+ strikeouts in a short career (6500+ at bats), this accomplished with a 457 foot power-alley for a right hand hitter in HALF of his career games!!!!! Plus, Ted wasn't married to Marilyn Monroe!!!
