Great guesses. You are on the right track with Hodges.

Mathews was actually 13th with 777 as he missed the first couple of years.

Hint for #5 on the list--his last name starts with E, and I don't think I'd every heard of him before.

You got it! Del Ennis had more RBIs than Mantle, Mathews or Mays in the 1950s.

And Gil Hodges had the 2nd most. So Duke and Gil were 1, 2 in both Home Runs and RBIs. Helps explain how the Dodgers won half the NL pennants in the 50s.
