Superheroes playing baseball (via SportsIllustrated!)

Which Superhero Would Be Best at Baseball? A Scientific Study: Part 1 | Extra Mustard - SI.com

Quote:
Which superhero would most dominate sports? Who would be best suited for which positions? These hotly-debated questions have existed since Batman, Superman, and Robin played various sports on the covers of World’s Finest Comics throughout World War II.

The debate becomes intractable, though, on a number of questions: Would Superman be able to throw out the Flash on a close play second? Is turning green and ripping out of shorts a side effect of PEDs? Would regulation equipment cause a “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex” scenario?

Luckily, I think I’ve devised a solution. To the best of my ability, I’ve ported the superpowers of 100 of the biggest names in comic books into the hyper-specific sub-ratings of baseball simulator Out of the Park Baseball, simulated a 162 game season, and examined the sabermetric output.
Apologies if it's already been posted, but it made me laugh.
