Dunn's 535-foot home run that landed in the Ohio River, on May 21/05 the announcers referred to that hit and said that its probably the only home run in history to get hit out of the state. Is this correct? Is the Ohio River technically Kentucky territory at that point? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.148.42.175 ( talk • contribs).
|W.marsh]] 00:45, 28 February 2006 (UTC) The dispute between Ohio and Kentucky over its border actually ended up in the US Supreme Court. In a 1973 decision ( http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/cgi-bin/getcase.pl?court=US&vol=410&invol=641), the court stated that the Kentucky's northern border was the low-water mark of the Ohio River in 1792. Since their were no dams on the river back then, it would follow that the border would be closer to the middle of the river than to the edge of the river where the stadium is located. Dunn's ball actually bounced on Mehring Way, which runs between the stadium and the river and landed on a piece of driftwood in the river. Thus, I believe the ball did not actually leave the state since it would have had to travel almost to the middle of the river.

Done Next time, please provide a reliable source to verify claims of this type. I was able to find one on Google News, but we do need all info to be sourced, and it's generally up to the person who wants to add something (whether they're making a request like yourself or editing directly) to supply one.

If someone wants to update the statistics on a daily or near-daily basis, rather than weekly, monthly, or annually, go for it. If there's a policy that I'm missing that says "do not update career statistics too often," then feel free to point me in that direction. On the other hand, if someone has taken the time to update statistics, I don't see much of a point to revert those edits. The subject of the article is climbing towards the top of two significant statistical categories: HRs and SOs. If someone pulls up WP and see up-to-date info., I find that more valuable than someone pulling up an article that is out of date--whether well out of date or fairly current. Zepppep ( talk) 13:12, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
Carthage44, if, when you come around to update your stats, as you say you do, bi-weekly, and they need updating, that's great, thank you for helping make WP more accurate, and generally better. However, there is no need to revert other editors who want to do their part in the mean time, unless you have grounds to believe their edits are wrong. It seems like this has been explained already, you may want to read over WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT as well. One of the great things about WP is that no one has to do any more or less work than they want to (that's actually a policy!). If one editor wants to update this page's stats, there's no requirement that he then follows through and updates all MLB stats. That work is left to the editors of those articles. Yes, this leads to uneven articles when compared to each other, and that's ok too. If other players are equally notable, and they have equally conscientious editors working on their articles, they will also be updated quite frequently. Others, maybe less often. They're all treated separately here. -- Despayre tête-à-tête 07:04, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
If Carthage44 wishes to claim that my stats update is incorrect, he needs to specify what is wrong and provide evidence. AutomaticStrikeout ( talk) 16:28, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
There was absolutely no call to revert my update because it was not completely up-to-date, especially considering that Carthage44 reverted it to something that was even less up-to-date. AutomaticStrikeout ( talk) 03:11, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
I just realized that if Carthage is the one that helps out by updating, he will actually be in 3RR violation, I'll leave a note on his talk page so we don't run into any problems there...-- Despayre tête-à-tête 04:22, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
I filed a report on him last week at WP:EWN, he was warned. If he's doing it again, file it again, he's on the edge of getting smacked on the head by the broom as it is (but I don't see a current problem from him). -- Despayre tête-à-tête 05:58, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
