Only 10 hitters since 1950 have had an OBP of .400 or better, .300 or better AVG., and .500 or better slugging percentage.

If you want to study hitting, these are the guys to start with. Learn the similarities and see what you can put in your swing.

Anyone want to list or already know who they are?

I will list

Actually, there are seven with a slugging % over .600, one being active and another wanting to still be active

Babe Ruth: .6898
Ted Williams: .6338
Lou Gehrig: .6324
Albert Pujols: .6200
Jimmie Foxx: .6093
Barry Bonds: .6069
Hank Greenberg:.6050
