You left out the "asterisk" for playing 8 "extra" games.
Cheater! And he never apologized for it.

LOL, Maris in the Hall (then again, LOL, Jim Rice in the Hall...). While he had two great years, his peak was way too short and a bunch of his contemporaries, Mickey Mantle among them, blew him away in comparison.

Oh and his postseason numbers seem lacking. I suspect he would have gotten booed like A-Rod.

Yeah, all those other dozens of Yankees in the Hall of Fame only got in because they lied and said they played for the Giants.

Little know fact. Joe D almost wasn't elected to the Hall of Fame until he reminded voters that he once played for the San Francisco Seals.

Same thing for Mickey Mantle. If it wasn't for Commerce High School, who knows???
