My dad grew up during the dead ball era, and to him, striking out was a sin. So, growing up, my favorite players were those who didn't strike out much. And, this probably explains why I now collect cards of Sam Rice.
Rice's best year probably was 1925; in 710 PAs, he had 227 hits, batted .350 and struck out only 10 times. In 1930 at age 40, in 669 PAs, Rice had 207 hits, batted .349 and struck out only 14 times. Not too shabby!
