Home run leaders of the '20s and '30s

[Tyrus4189Cobb]

Hey folks. I was wondering if anyone has the list for the top 15 leaders or so of total home runs in the '20s and '30s. For example, Ruth led the 1920s with 467, followed by Joe with X, then Bill with Y, etc. Anything is appreciated.

Also: Bill Terry 154, Dolph Camilli 148, George Kelly 146, Joe Medwick 145, Travis Jackson 135...

I don't know why BB-Ref's table coding does not translate.

You are worried about that when we have people here who won't do their own homework... and we have more than one person here who will do it for them?

It's madness. By the way, I contacted Lee Sinnis, and he said his baseball encyclopedia (which is perfect for making lists like these) won't be available for the MAC, probably ever.
