That, and, pitchers threw more innings. So Eddie has over 3000 innings while Shoeless Joe has less than 6000 PA.

True, but he dominated every year he played for the 9 or 10 full years he played. He put up some of the greatest numbers ever seen and he's definately up there with Cobb, Wagner, Lajoie and Speaker during during that time as far as hitting goes. But this discussion can go on forever, so to each his own I guess.
