Eee-Yah is right! Hughie Jennings is still the all-time leader in HBP with 287. Craig Biggio is the modern-day leader with 285.

Cool story about Hughie...

"He certainly enriched the lexicon of baseball. (Hughie) Jennings would stand in the first-base coaching box, raise his fists, kick one leg into the air and yell: 'Here we are.' Finally, by sacrificing consonants for simplicity, this became 'Eee-Yah.' The fans would pick up the chant whenever Jennings would step onto the field, and sounds would ring through old Bennett Park. - Sportswriter Joe Falls of The Detroit News
