Louis Sockalexis was one of baseballs first (if not THE first) five tool player. His defense and throwing arm were the stuff of legend while he was in college and he was the fastest player in baseball the one year he played full time. Combine that with his high average and extraordinary power for his era (he once hit a 400 foot+ home run against Amos RUsie) and he might have been the first player that was a 5 tool player by todays standards.
