Pete Browning
Last offseason we looked at the single-season and career records for a number of statistical categories from Kentucky natives. I thought I’d restart that series over the next few days while we wait for more playoff action. We’ll start with on-base percentage. Single-season record holders must qualify for batting title in that season, and career record holders must have at least 3,000 plate appearances.
