Francis Joseph "Lefty" O'Doul is one of my favorite guys in Baseball.
Lefty's career BA is an outstanding .349 over a Major League career that spanned 11 years. His hitting ability is high-lighted by a .398 BA with 254 Hits,
32 HR's, 122 RBI's, while playing for the Phillies in 1929. He followed that up with a .383 BA in 1930.
I could relate a number of interesting stories about Lefty, but I leave it to you to read his SABR write-up...... https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/lefty-odoul/
