Heard this one during the Phillies game the other day.
Juan Soto, who IMHO is the most overrated player in the game, is only the fourth player in MLB history to have 20 doubles and 80 walks at the All Star break. Name the other three.

Hints: They are all post 1950 so no really old timers.
Two are in the HOF.
The third is hard but he is a former Phillie.

I’ll guess John Kruk. He hit a lot of gaps but always stopped at 2nd base no matter what.😂

Don Mattingly, Mike Trout and The Dude.

My first thought was Bonds but don't remember him being a guy to hustle for an extra base
Edit. Just saw 2 in the HOF. None of mine are.
I'll stick with Donny Baseball as the non HOF.

I bet Dykstra is correct. Although it could be someone like Theo Von Hayes.🤔

Colby… I saw it was answered, but I thought you’d appreciate a Garry Maddox reference.

Abreu has a career Retrosheet rating of 33.6,much higher than many outfielders already in Cooperstown.

BTW-Who threw the first no-hitter at Dodgers Stadium?
