Could there be such a thing as a real golden age of baseball? Baseball's Best Decade takes you on a whirlwind tour of baseball from the 1920s through the 2000s. You'll see at a glance how hitters and pitchers stack up against each other from one decade to the next, and how changes in the game - from Babe Ruth's fence-busting bat to the rise of the relief specialist to the designated hitter - have made performance comparisons from one era to the next more challenging ... and, with the right statistical insights, absolutely fascinating. Baseball's Best Decade is the only source that compares combined major league performances on a decade-by-decade basis. Which decade did produce baseball's real golden age? The answers are finally available. And they'll surprise you. Enjoy the memories.
