List of Major League Baseball runs batted in champions

Sorry this took so long, but the next step in the Triple Crown mini-topic process! At least I'm keeping up with KV (who's gotten through 2/3 pitching lists). :) Staxringold talkcontribs 20:21, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Three quick comments:
 * Shouldn't "or bases loaded walk" be "or bases loaded base on ball"? I know the repetition of base isn't nice, but the current sentence doesn't include a hit-by-pitch.
 * Good call on HBP, added. I left walk though, it's the very very very VERY commonly used nickname for BB and sounds much better as you note. Staxringold talkcontribs 15:42, 3 May 2010 (UTC)


 * In reference five, remove the ALL-CAPS in the title. Also, "New York Times" should be "The New York Times", with the italicization
 * Fixed. Staxringold talkcontribs 15:42, 3 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Is the work ESPN or ESPN.com? Mm40 (talk) 12:01, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Staxringold talkcontribs 15:42, 3 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment if the at bat thing isn't particularly relevant, and the discussion I've capped seems to indicate that, then perhaps it should be removed. The Rambling Man (talk) 12:49, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Will do. Staxringold talkcontribs 14:38, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Done, will apply to HR list a bit later. Staxringold talkcontribs 19:16, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Comments –
 * Hyphen for "27 season"?
 * "The most recent champions are Mark Teixeira in the American League with Prince Fielder and Ryan Howard sharing the title in the National League." For some reason the sentence feels off grammatically to me. Would "The most recent champion in the American League is Mark Teixeira, with Prince Fielder and Ryan Howard sharing the title in the American League" be any better? (forgetting the noun + -ing structure that I don't like for a second)
 * The Sam Crawford image has no given source.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 00:21, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. Took a stab at that sentence. Replaced the Crawford pic. Staxringold talkcontribs 19:15, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Support – After the fixes, everything looks good to go.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 18:04, 13 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Dabs; please check the disambiguation links identified in the toolbox. Dabomb87 (talk) 01:35, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. Staxringold talkcontribs 15:28, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Support from KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 15:44, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Support (popped back onto my watchlist), another good list. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:09, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
