Single Season Leaders for Triples in the National League

Speed is the key to making this chart. Are players today faster than they once were? Are they slower? There are many arguments supporting both sides, supporting better defense, supporting better pitching but the truth is only a few active players appear anywhere on this chart.

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present the top five-hundred all-time single season leaders in National League triples. Note: A bold faced entry denotes that the player was active during the previous Major League season.
"When (Chief) Wilson hit one of his 11 home runs late in the 1912 season, the Pittsburgh Post noted that 'Wilson attempted to triple, but tapped a pellet a trifle too hard and it floated over the right field wall.' " - Sportswriter Bart Ripp in Chief Wilson's 36 Triples (BaseballLibrary.com)

Current Through 2013 Season


Did you know that the National League rookie with the most triples in a single season is Jimmy Williams who had twenty-seven with Pittsburgh in one-hundred fifty-three games played during the 1899 season?

The code to write the single season triples league splits was developed in 2005, launched during 2006 and made possible by your support — please continue helping us create these kinds of pages by supporting our site.

The American League single season record for triples was set in 1912 by Joe Jackson of the Cleveland Naps then tied two years later by Sam Crawford of the Detroit Tigers. The National League single season record for triples is on this page. Is either the Career Leader for Triples?
