Trivia: Random Walking Eddies
 

8 players have walked 148 times or more in a single season. 3 of those 8 players have the first name Eddie. Who are these 3 walking Eddies?

Eddie Yoost is one.

If Eddie Yoost is one of them, I will take Eddie Yost.:D

I assume that Eddie Joost was the name clydepeppr was looking for. and 99% sure Stanky is the last of them. Three guys, all from the same era, who were considered solid if unspectacular players. Definitely a little weird.

Thanks for understanding...duh!

Yes! Eddie Yost (151 walks), Eddie Joost (149 walks) and Eddie Stanky (148 walks) walks are among players like Babe Ruth, Barry Bonds, and Ted Williams in single season walks.

Hard to believe that each of these players walked more in a single season than Mickey Mantle, Juan Soto, or other walks machines.

To be honest, I sometimes think Eddie Yost and Eddie Joost are the same person.

There's also Eddie Collins who is in the top 20 in career walks, Eddie Mathews (#24 all-time) and Eddie Murray (#39 all-time).

I seem to recall Jimmy Wynn having a lot one year.
