The photoshop alone is worth the click over: Barry Bonds and Babe Ruth go time traveling. What would happen if Bonds had started his career with the Red Sox in 1914 instead of Ruth; and if Ruth had started his as a Pirate in place of Bonds? Full season stats simulations run through WhatIfSports.com.

	ruth with out a doubt.... For many reasons... One the baseballs were different... 2. there were less games in a season....3. the giants probably have the easiest field to hit hr's out of.

	Tell me about it they are not even in the same league.... Ruth is the best power hitter of all time... Ruth made the game what it is... Ruth made Yankee Stadium what it is... All Bonds has done is put a black eye on baseball.

	Ruth, no question. The year the Babe hit 60 HRs, only two other players in the majors hit more than 20, and only three TEAMS in the majors hit 60. No ball player since has been nearly as dominant. And Ruth won 20 games twice, and even won the ERA title in 1916.
