Prime 10 lists for batters

Final Tuesday’s rundown of pitching leaders was well-received, so you understand what’s coming as we speak.

It’s time to take a look at the Fashionable Period’s high 10 batters in a number of key classes.

I defined final week that I’ve collected a variety of statistics for the seasons from 1961 to the current — byproducts of my analysis for the tales I write each Tuesday and Friday. I relied on this trove as I pulled collectively a sequence of top-10 lists for pitchers per week in the past, and now I’ve completed the identical for hitters.

The primary eight lists present the very best profession performances for runs, hits, doubles, triples, dwelling runs, runs batted in, batting common, and bases per outs. The ultimate two lists present the leaders in a pair of detrimental classes: strikeouts and groundouts into double performs.

Every batter’s title is adopted by his big-league span in parentheses. All of those rankings are confined to the Fashionable Period. If a participant was lively in 1960 or previous to that — equivalent to Willie Davis or Roberto Clemente — solely his stats from 1961 to the current are proven right here.
