A model of consistency, Zack Wheat collected 2,884 hits over 19 seasons and still holds Dodger franchise records for career hits, doubles, triples, and total bases. His hit totals exploded with the advent of the lively ball in 1920, as he collected 200 hits three times and batted over .350 three consecutive years. A left-handed line-drive hitter, he batted .300 or better 13 times, hit .317 for his career, and led Brooklyn to its first two World Series appearances, in 1916 and 1920.
