I trust this year’s Fourth of July celebration will include the usual assortment of fireworks, parades and concerts. But this year there is going to be something new.

Babe Ruth hit 60 homers in a single season and 714 in his career. Ty Cobb had 4,189 career hits and stole 897 bases, including 96 in a one season. Lou Gehrig once played in 2,130 games. When I was a teenager, any baseball fan could recite those numbers. Even people who weren’t avid fans knew those numbers. To people of my generation they seemed to be written on stone tablets and were permanently woven into the fabric of the game.
