And it's like he was homered in every single big situation there is in baseball.

There's some cool stat about that, right?

Yes.

World Baseball Classic, both leagues, every round, something.

I don't know.

But the guy is built to hit home runs and he absolutely dominates it.

He does it against the best pitching in the biggest situations.

And I really hope he gets to 500 homers and forces his way into the Hall of Fame.

And that would just make me so happy.

I understand.

Yeah, right.

And he's an incredibly smart player about his game, and he's kept himself in great shape as he's gotten older in his career.

And if he played in a different era and different things were emphasized, I'm sure he would have adapted and figured that out as well.

But I think he knows his value and who he is, and he just really dominates that.

And there's a lot to be said for it.

Across the league?

Yeah, I mean, I kind of think the biggest part of that is just the zone is smaller.

Like the edges are truly the edge as we're seeing.

And I think there's always been a little bit of a buffer zone just with human error from umpires that you'd expect.

So it's definitely the smallest strike zone the big leagues has ever had.
