Philadelphia Phillies, Philadelphia Athletics, Cleveland Naps- Nap Lajoie, 2B.

Here’s a fun fact about 1896-1916 baseball legend: (1901) Nap is said to be the first player walked intentionally with the bases loaded. Lajoie is really nothing but an MLB champion, leading the league five-times in batting average, four-times hits, five-times doubles, three-times and RBIs.
