Default Un-sung record holders

Lave (Lafayette Napoleon) Cross had a long and productive career spanning 21 MLB seasons with 2,651 hits, but a career OPS+ of 100. When he retired in 1907, he was second to Anson in career hits. His record for assists at 3B was broken by Eddie Mathews in 1946. Since 1900, Cross is the only player to have more than 100 RBI's (he had 108) without hitting a home run. In 1896, Hughie Jennings knocked in 121 runs without a home run. But I don't have a Jennings card.
