Grove is a fine guess! Lefty Grove led the American League in strikeouts his first 7 years, but only led all of MLB the last 3 years of that stretch.

Dazzy Vance is another excellent guess! Like Lefty Grove, he led the league (in this case the National League) in strikeouts 7 years in a row, but also only led all of MLB for 3 consecutive years (Grove ended Vance's streak in 1926).
