Perhaps a new hitting "club" should be started titled the 1,000 Extra Base Hits Club — an elite group of thirty-three sluggers, of which the majority are in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Share your opinion / thoughts on Baseball Fever today.

Did you know that the top twenty-fve non-active players on the this top one-hundred extra-base hits page are nearly identical to the Ted Williams top twenty hitters list he put together many years earlier?

Prior to 2010 we only listed the top 100 and monitored those who made and slipped off the list. Here is that original fast fact preserved and now useless due to the list including 1000 names: In 2002 the cutoff to make the Top 100 increased from seven-hundred fifty (750) extra base hits to seven-hundred fifty-four (754) dropping Paul O'Neill (753) and Dick Allen (750) off the chart. In 2003 the cutoff to make the Top 100 increased from seven-hundred fifty-four (754) extra base hits to seven-hundred sixty-one (761) dropping Wade Boggs (757), Bobby Bonilla (756) and Steve Garvey (755). In 2004 the cutoff to make the Top 100 increased from seven-hundred sixty-one (761) to seven-hundred seventy-one (771) extra base hits dropping Earl Averill (767), Tony Gwynn (763), Heinie Manush (761) and Ryne Sandberg (761) off the chart and in 2005 the cutoff to make the Top 100 increased from seven-hundred seventy-one (771) to seven-hundred seventy-four (774) dropping Chuck Klein (772), Dan Brouthers (771) & Will Clark (771) off the chart.
