How bout Cecil Travis. Had a .314 lifetime average. In '41 had 218 hits hitting .359.
The next 3 years he served his country, when he played ball again in '46 he hit .315

Mickey Vernon - adding in the 44 and 45 season, he would have had a minimum of 2800 hits.....
Would that have been enough? I don't know. Last edited by David W; 05-22-2012 at 03:11 PM. Reason: added detail |

-Pete Browning
-Tony Mullane -and a host of other 19th century guys, especially some of the guys that played the majority of their career in the AA (Jimmy Ryan is definitely also on my short list)

Deacon White for the reasons explained in this article. I'm sure Joe G will love seeing this again.

Agreed on Jake Daubert and Pete Browning. Bob Johnson would be another.
If it were strictly batting, Babe Herman (.324 lifetime batter and other guy in the Lefty O'Doul and Gary Cooper picture) and Riggs Stephenson (.336), but fielding keeps both as well as Browning out. Last edited by Brian Van Horn; 05-22-2012 at 06:25 PM. |
