RetroSeasons recaps past sports seasons through stories, photos, videos, and stats from every team, league, and stadium in history. Coverage includes the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL, as well as vintage media from defunct teams and leagues.
These percentile rankings are a score to indicate how George Thomas ranks among all historic players for several skill categories. For example, a percentile of "85% Power" would indicate a player among the top 15% of players in raw batting power, and a percentile of "Speed 3%" would indicate a player that is among the slowest players in the history of the game. These percentiles are entirely based on career statistical accomplishments for players with over 500 games played or 500 innings pitched, so may not accurately reflect an intangible ability.

California Angels at Minnesota Twins - Radio Broadcast / The 1971 season saw contrasting fortunes for the Los Angeles Angels and the Minnesota Twins in Major League Baseball. The Angels, led by manager Lefty Phillips, finished with a disappointing 76-86 record, landing them fourth in the American League West division. Despite the efforts of slugger Tony Conigliaro and pitcher Clyde Wright, the team struggled to find consistency and fell short of playoff contention.
In contrast, the Twins, under manager Bill Rigney, enjoyed a successful campaign, finishing with an 85-77 record, placing them second in the American League West. The team showcased a strong offense, spearheaded by the likes of Harmon Killebrew, Tony Oliva, and Rod Carew. However, their efforts were overshadowed by the dominant Oakland Athletics, who claimed the division title. While the Twins missed out on the postseason, their solid performance laid the foundation for future success.

After A.S Barnes stopped publication of their guide (successor to the long-running Spalding Baseball Guide), the Sporting News Guide became the official MLB guide.
