May 3, 200719 yr I'm pretty sure thats right. Thats my answer as well. Actually I think its Hughie Jennings. Biggio (barring injury) is set to break it this year but I haven't heard anything about it happening yet so I think he's still short.
May 3, 200719 yr I believe it's Biggio and I've never heard of Hugie Jennings. Baylor had it, like LRCW said, for a long time. Who did Jennings play for?
May 4, 200719 yr I believe it's Biggio and I've never heard of Hugie Jennings. Baylor had it, like LRCW said, for a long time. Who did Jennings play for? He's a dead ball era player. I can't believe you hadn't heard of him Strike-3, he's in The Hall of Fame! I had only heard about him because I read an article about milestones that should be reached this year in a preseason preview. I looked it up and he does indeed still hold the record for career hit by pitches with 287, Biggio is poised to pass him at 283. Baylor is actually in 4th place with 267 behind Tommy Tucker with 272. Jennings played SS/1B with Louisville, Baltimore, Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Detroit from 1918.
May 4, 200719 yr Thanks and here is another....All-time leader, in HBP's as a batter. Is it Don Baylor or Ron Hunt?
May 4, 200719 yr Is it Don Baylor or Ron Hunt? Its Hughie Jennings, Biggio is in 2nd 4 behind. See my previous posts.

May 4, 200719 yr Author Barry Bonds is the obvious leader in intentional BB. Who does he hold the lead over and how many intentional BB's does he have OVER the 2nd place guy?
May 4, 200719 yr Author http://www.baseball-almanac.com/recbooks/rb_hbp2.shtml Well that is interesting. They contradict themselves.
