As is their wont, the Devil and St.Peter were having an argument.

The Devil finally says “Enough of this, we’ll settle this on the ball field.”

St. Peter looks at him and says “What ball field?”

Satan says “The baseball field. My guys against yours.”

Peter looks at him incredulously and asks “Are you kidding? I’ve got Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle, Williams who do you have?

The Devil responds: “All the umpires.”

That's not funny.

Well, it's hard to take seriously someone who claims to know the game, but thinks that anyone, let alone Ty Cobb, could get a "home run" off a hit to the pitcher, but as long as people keep calling it a "Little League Home Run" I guess I'll have to live with it.

That aside, his points are mostly  true, and IMO Ty Cobb has got the shaft in lore, and the real racist in the HOF, Cap Anson, has got a free pass.
