http://tinyurl.com/5t5ufbo
The San Francisco Giants' all-time hits leaders are composed of a series
of Hall of Famers from both their New York and San Francisco eras. They are
topped by a member of both the 3,000 hit and 600 home run clubs, Willie Mays.
10. George Van Haltren: 1,580 hits
Old time outfielder and occasional pitcher George Van Haltren remains tenth
on the list of San Francisco Giants' all-time hits leaders. Van Haltren joined
the Giants in 1893 when they played in New York. He batted .321 over ten
seasons with the Giants en route to seven seasons with at least 180 hits.
In his 17-year Major League career, he racked up 2,544 hits and crossed the
plate 1,642 times.
9. Jo-Jo Moore: 1,615 hits
Six-time All-Star Jo-Jo Moore manned left field for the Giants in the 1930s.
As a table-setter for the Giants' lineup, Moore posted two 200-hit seasons and
he batted for an average north of .300 five times. He enjoyed his career year
in 1936 when he tallied 205 hits and 110 runs with a .316 average.
8. Larry Doyle: 1,751 hits
1912 National League MVP Larry Doyle places eighth on the list of
San Francisco Giants' all-time hits leaders. Doyle spent 13 seasons with the
Giants and two with the Cubs as he batted .290 with a .357 on-base percentage.
He led the NL in hits twice, maxing out with 189 on a league-leading .320
average in 1915.
7. Travis Jackson: 1,768 hits
Hall of Fame shortstop Travis Jackson ranks seventh among the
San Francisco Giants' all-time hits leaders. Jackson spent his entire 15-year
Major League career with the Giants from 1922 to 1936. He checked in with
a .300 batting average six times, retiring with a .291 mark for his career.
In 1924, he posted his career-high of 180 hits.
6. Mike Tiernan: 1,838 hits
A mainstay of the Giants' lineup in the 1890s, Mike Tiernan remains
one of the San Francisco Giants' all-time leading hitters. Tiernan led the
National League in home runs twice, OPS twice, runs once, and walks once.
He was a career .311 hitter with a .392 on-base percentage.
The star right fielder cracked a career-high 192 hits in the
133-game 1896 season.
5. Barry Bonds: 1,951 hits
Recently retired seven-time National League MVP Barry Bonds put up the most
ridiculous stats in an era characterized by inflated numbers. Over 22 seasons
with the Giants and Pirates, Bonds batted .298 with 2,935 total hits.
These were the least impressive stats of his career. Doing most of his
damage in San Francisco, Bonds set Major League Baseball's all-time records
for home runs with 762 and walks with 2,558. He owns the two highest
single-season OPS numbers in MLB history, setting the record with a
1.422 OPS in 2004.
4. Willie McCovey: 1,974 hits
Cove enthusiast Willie McCovey spent 19 Hall of Fame seasons with the Giants
from 1959 to 1980. McCovey won a Rookie of the Year and an MVP Award with the
Giants. While he was rarely a strong bet to hit for a high average, McCovey
was a major power threat who totaled 521 homers with a lifetime
.515 slugging percentage.
3. Bill Terry: 2,193 hits
Ranking third on the San Francisco Giants' all-time hits leaders list is Hall
of Fame first baseman Billy Terry. A career Giant from 1923 to 1936, Terry was
one of the greatest pure hitters in Major League history. He owns the 15th
highest lifetime average in MLB as he hit .341 for his career including a .401
season in 1930. Terry had six 200-hit years and his 1930 total of 254 hits
remains the Giants' single-season record.
2. Mel Ott: 2,876 hits
Hall of Fame right fielder Mel Ott spent his entire 22-year career with
the Giants from 1926 to 1947. Ott debuted with the Giants as a 17-year old
and he immediately displayed his phenom potential by hitting .383 in 60
at bats. He went on to lead the NL in homers and walks six times each while
batting .304 for his career. Ott led the Giants to victory in the
1933 World Series with a .389 average and two homers. He is a member of the
500 home run club and his 1,860 RBI are the 11th most in MLB history.
1. Willie Mays: 3,187 hits
The San Francisco Giants' all-time hits leader is living legend Willie Mays.
Mays played 21 incredible seasons with the Giants from 1951 to 1971.
Remembered mostly for his power, his 660 home runs rank fourth in MLB history,
Mays was a career .302 hitter and his 3,283 total hits are good for 11th.
The two-time MVP topped the 170 hit mark in 12 different seasons. Mays was
one of the most incredible all-around players to ever step onto the diamond;
he maintained a career .941 OPS, earned 22 All-Star appearances, and picked up
12 Gold Gloves.
