Tommy Tanks and The Bear

[Nutriaitch]

For the first time since peak Geaux-Rilla ball era, we have 2 guys on our all time Top 10 HR seasons in the same year

Wonder how may either of them would have had in that era?

I'd say they'd at lest be #2 and #3.  And who knows, there is still plenty of baseball to play.

Bear is at 26 right now.  4 away from Tying Crease for #2.

with a deep enough run, he has a shot at reaching that this year with these bats.

with the all out assault weapons from '97? who the hell knows.

 

Minor League and D1 level guys swinging last year's bat and the '97 Easton Reflex for comparisons.

extra 8 mph average exit velo
don't give the distances, but if you watch, it was very noticeable.

 

NOTE:  not a power guy, but I was able to go yard with the Black Magics and the Reflex from that era.  Them things were HOT!
