How about the fact Babe Ruth was pitching to sub-par talent that couldn't hit home runs.
How about the fact that Barry has about 500 more stolen bases than the Babe.
How about the fact alot of pitchers can just plain pitch better because of technological advances.
Barry is going to catch Babe though, without being a DH.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
