Babe Ruth had 148 games as a starter with a record of 94-46. Johnson had 666 games starting with a record of 417-279. If Ruth started the same number of games as Johnson, his record would have been 423-207, beating Johnson in wins and percentage.. Do the same math with Cy Young's record of 511-316 for 815 GS, and Ruth's record would be 517-253. Ruth IS the GREATEST ball player of all time!
