Short sluggers

Steve Lombardi of the Baseball Reference Blog lists the top career homerun hitters of those players 5’6” or shorter

First of all, I never knew Hack Wilson was so short.  He just makes the 5’6” requirement.  He tops the list.  He’s also pretty much the only legitimate slugger.  Wilson outpaces #2 Tommy Leach by a remarkable 244 to 57 margin.
