There are college Division 1 All-American baseball players today that would be hall of famers if they played in the 1910/1920s

Ruth was better relative to his peers than Ohtani has been relative to his. You don't have to think WAR is a perfect measure to realize that the 182.6 vs. 51.5 discrepancy renders the question absurd.

Huge Dodger fan here who loves watching Ohtani and can't stand Dave Roberts.

I voted for Ruth—one of a kind.

If Ohtani can pitch and hit at an elite level for 10 more years, then he may have a case.

For now, I am just enjoying watching him, and I'm glad he is on my favorite team

"...at least not right now." The last words in the first (shortened) clip.

Btw, the full 60 Minutes segment is pure gold. Thanks for sharing.

Ohtani is an amazing player, and a class act. It would be interesting to see how his skills would hold up to the nightly onslaught of booze, babes, and beef that Ruth tore through.

These are awesome clips, although to be fair, Aaron Judge is way too classy to say anything less gracious than what he said in his answer to the reporter. Judge is old school in that way. Yankees are lucky to have him.

I'm a Dodger homer all the way and Yoshi hasn't even reached Mickey Lolich status yet. I use him because he threw three complete game wins in the 1968 World Series beating some guy named Bob Gibson in game 7... On two days rest.

Is the next comparison going to be Snell or Koufax? This thread needs to take a realistic chill pill!

We're not even in kooky territory yet. Who could forget the great Warren Spahn vs Hyun Jin Ryu debate of 2021?
