Yeah They never faced guys named Gooden, Ryan or Clemens. And those junk ballers actually knew how to pitch now just throw. Willie McGee and Rickey Henderson would terrorize pitchers today with their speed alone. Hitters also knew how to go the other way and find holes in the defense instead of being one dimensional pull hitters.
lol so you named like 3 other pitchers that weren't junk ballers? It's easy to say guys know how to go the other way and find holes but guess what? Those hitters weren't facing 95+ with movement every single day like hitters today are. They also didn't have as much data then as they do now. It's just not even comparable. If those hitters back then had to face what hitters do today in terms of data and how pitchers actually throw, they wouldn't touch them.
