Bill Joyce is correct! His .435 is #2 on the list.

Always loved Eddie Stanky. A walk machine with a .410 OBP and a .268 batting average. Probably not high enough to make this list, but I bet he's top 10 in differential between average and OBP!

I am surprised Ed Stanky walked that much.

Any idea why Stanky didn't make it to the majors until age 27? He only played 11 seasons because of his late start but still had a career WAR of 41.5.

Stanky just missed the top 10 - he is #13.

Only one name left - #7. The first hint is in post #21 above. Another hint: 19th century collectors like me LOVE this guy. He was BORN to play ball !!!

I know I'm wrong because this guy IS in the Hall, but not as a player...
