This was much before Ruth but Willie Keeler played there in the first decade of the 20 th century and I think they were called the Highlanders then.

winner tris speaker 222 triples 220 k's

Speaker might be the greatest player that never ever gets mentioned...his numbers were just unreal...I did read he had some controversy involving possible gambling and corruption, not sure to what extent that was though....I made a thread on him once, he had some amazing statistics

that is kind of a deceptive question, baseball reference doesn't list his Ks for the first 5 or 6 years of his career.
ya it was i got the question from a friend before i looked at it you gotta think he may have fanned more than twice lol

Either way, that is an absurdly low number of Ks over 15 or so seasons. He was in single digits a couple of times.

I would guess Walter Johnson or Don Newcombe.

Actually, DN isn't in the hall.
