Yes, he is better than Rickey Henderson, Ty Cobb and other greats...
No, we are not talking about the Billy Hamilton on the Reds
From 1888-1901 Billy Hamilton played for the Kansas city Cowboys, Philadelphia Phillies and the Boston Beaneaters
Now, I know it is hard to compare baseball generations, but with a career .455 OBP, and .344 BA and 914 SB in 14 seasons... those are the best numbers...
What is even more impressive is the 198 runs scored in 1894... He is 3rd all time in SB and that is with 14 seasons...
