Sometimes it is just best to let the numbers do the talking, like when you are trying to explain how great a player Tris Speaker was. He is fifth all time with 3,514 hits, and his career average of .345 is sixth best in history. Speaker still holds the career record of 792 doubles. He played a very shallow center field and still holds career records for most assists, double plays, and he even had six unassisted double plays. A well deserved place in baseball's ultimate shrine, Cooperstown.
