I know he ended with more Ks than walks, so I assume 1212 is strikeout total. Definitely adds perspective when you compare his ratio to Bonds.
Any list of great all around hitters must include Ruth, Mays, Williams and Aaron near the top.
One I haven’t seen mentioned on here is Joe DiMaggio. Career .325 hitter with 361 home runs. He missed 3 years because of the war. He at least deserves a mention.

DiMaggio was a great player but doesn’t deserve to be be mentioned in this type of list

DiMaggio’s career home run total is pretty impressive when you factor in old Yankee Stadium not being a friendly park for right handed hitters. From 1937 until the renovation in ‘76, straightaway left was 402 and left center was 457. No telling what his home run totals would have been in the post-renovation dimensions and with additional 3 prime years lost to World War II.
