MLB 1927 Home Run Derby Simulation
In this simulated 1927 MLB Home Run Derby, we're seeing a clash of titans with Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Rogers Hornsby, and Hack Wilson, all at their prime. Ruth and Gehrig, famously part of the '27 Yankees' "Murderers' Row", are up against Hornsby, who had just moved to the Giants, and Wilson, who was leading the Cubs' offensive, setting the stage for a contest of power hitters from a golden era of baseball.
