I've left no secret of trying to help Battin's cause here.
There is only one other third baseman in the hall.
Only three HOF players have more career walks and only four have a higher OBP than Battin's .412. Battin did not have the longetivity of many of the other players in the Hall but there is no doubt he was one of the premier 3B in the league during his era with only Levi Meyerle and Decon White being close to Battin's caliber.
