Wahoo Sam considered by baseball experts to be the the premier power-hitter of his day, still holds baseball's
career record for triples with 312. In fact, he led the American League in triples 5 times. Sam played in the outfield
with Hall of Fame Legend, Ty Cobb. He played with the Detroit Tigers for 15 of his 19 big
league years during which Detroit won the pennant 3 years in a row. Sam became the first player in the modern era
to win homerun titles in both the NL and the AL.
