        I assume the earliest one was Ross Barnes since he was from the 1870s and is a B(eotch).
        Ross Barnes had 197 total bases in 320 AB in 1873 !

              Yes, thank you autocorrect. Ashtrays is exactly what I wanted to type there.

                  I tend to think of Jim Bottomley with that group, but he came much later.

                            This deserves a stinging comeback, but unfortunately hive not come up with one.

                                Damn, I definitely think of Brouthers as an 1880s kinda guy.
                                More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.
