Still supports your argument as the only significant difference is at age 39.

I only used AB's because the author of the article chose to cite them instead of PA's.

I agree PA's are a much more accurate measure of how often someone steps into the batter's box versus how much they "rested". (ldo)

And I wasn't so much comparing them to Bonds, as pointing out the blatant misguided assertion in the article:

<u>Assertion:</u>"none of them were full-time, 500+ at bat players any longer"
<u>Fact:</u> Aaron averaged 480AB and 564PA from age 35-39.

<u>Assertion:</u>"a fact that has absolutely zero to do with Barry Bonds."
<u>Fact:</u> Bonds averaged 424AB and 610PA from age 35-39.
