Plaque: teams in Senators history. He played in four WS (three with Washington) and won three of them. He was a 2-time AL BOY and won 7 batting titles, including hitting over .400 twice! He led the league in hits 6 times and retired with 3452 of them (5th All-Time), plus a .346 average (7th All-Time), 155 homeruns, 522 doubles (23rd All-Time), 1408 RBI, 1632 runs (16th All-Time), 1152 walks, 215 steals and a .888 OPS. All those numbers despite spending two years at war, and he was 2nd all-time in batting average for much of his career before a subpar 1951 season and haning on one season too long for a last hurrah with Washington in 1952.
Something was left out in the bolded part, I believe.
