Wow, that's hard. I never knew anyone had 20 triples at age 35, let alone 5.

Sam Crawford seems like the obvious guess.

It's probably going to be some 19th century players, based on the OP's tendencies. I'll guess Brothers and Connor.

Some great guesses so far... and some fine work by Peter to narrow things down Correct answers given so far are listed below. Giving credit for "Brothers" despite the misspelling.

We're missing only one now (ordered by most triples):

1. Roger Connor (age 36) 25 triples in 1894
2. Dan Brouthers (age 36) 23 triples in 1894
3. ???
4. Sam Thompson (age 35) 21 triples in 1895
5. Honus Wagner (age 38) 20 triples in 1912
