In today’s special episode, we return to the Negro Leagues to chat with Eric Chalek, a researcher who has developed a set of MLEs (Major League Equivalencies) for Negro League stars. For the first time we can see Martîn Dihigo with 3,082 hits and 381 home runs—or Smokey Joe Williams with a 390-301 record with a 2.68 ERA—or Cool Papa Bell with 3,366 hits and 405 steals—or Josh Gibson with 435 home runs (remember, he only played through age 34).
