Who is this player that holds the record?

He is the record holder for the most triples in ml and can you name the two teams he did it with?



Sam Crawford has 309 career triples. he has played for the Cincinnati Reds and Detroit Tigers from 1899 to 1917.




Philadelphia Athletics utility infielder, George Strief established the record in 1885. Strief, a .207 career right-hander, was having his best season that year, batting .274 in 44 games and 175 at-bats. On June 25, he added four triples, a record that stood alone until Bill Joyce amazed everyone with his four triples, twelve years later.
