All that while missing 3 years to the war smack-dab in the prime of his career. If you can look at those numbers and say that he's not one of the best players of all-time, you shouldn't be here embarrassing yourself discussing baseball.

Only player in baseball history to make the All Star team every single season of his career.
What he said...200lbhockeyplayer said:While Jeremy is Jeremy, the entire "statistical anomaly" is absolutely true.
To me, it's like the celebration of the cycle. If a player hits for the cycle, they get more publicity and excitement than a player who hit 2 HR and 2 doubles.

But Joe DiMaggio accomplished a TON more than just the hitting streak. He is quite literally one of the top baseball players to ever play the game. There is no statistical anomaly that encompasses Joe DiMaggio. Just ask Ted Williams.
