Records look a lot different than RL when nothing before 1951 exists. My knowledge of 50s baseball is limited. Starting in 1951 has improved it. For a time I started in 1955 to get Clemente's entire career but then decided 1951 to get the entire careers of Mays and Mantle.
Anyway, back to records looking different, your Footnote League player Dale Long is #37 on the all time home run list. Frank Thomas is #19 and the Pirates all time home run leader but the Bucs did not retire his number. (Only retired Pirate number is Bob Friend.)

Dale's going to need to get a whole lot better than he was in the minors in '06 if he wants to repeat that.
I love how similar your results have been to historical, with the Botox close but agonisingly no cigar and the Bombers dominant. Nice work.
