Keeler hitting more triples than he struck out is pretty wild.

Keeler hitting more triples than he struck out is pretty wild.

not sure if wild is the term i would use for a dead ball player to have more triples than strike outs... you would probably guess that there would be a bunch back then that would fit that description...


Ichiro is a tough player to compare to a deadball era guy... because Ichiro was only BA and SB... he did not have a great OBP... and hit for very little power...

Ichiro is probably one of the WORST players who "deserves to make it to the HOF" of all time...

Keeler hitting more triples than he struck out is pretty wild.

at first i thought i would find plenty of players with this description... i went searching... couldnt find many... if any...

so i retract my unimpressed by this stat...
