I believe there is some stat that lumps Kiner, Pujols and Pete Alonso, like most 30 hr seasons at start of career or something like that. Super cool to see the greatness of Kiner recognized, but also disappointing to see how far the Pirates have fallen that nobody is capable of hitting 30 anymore.
Pretty good announcer too.
The man all around! I’m a Mets fan, so I enjoyed hearing him (and the stories from my Grandfather)
Wow, I had no idea Kiner's career was such a short one! Great writeup.

Agreed — they’ve fallen far. I’ve seen a stat that puts those three together as well!
Thanks — spent longer trying to get in the Hall than actually playing!
