This is for all of you baseball fans! Can you name the five Hall Of Famers at the top of the hit list for 3,000 hits? Can you also name the person that is seven hits away from also being there?

Pretty sure of 4 out of the 5
Ty Cobb
Hank Aaron
Stan Musial
Carl Yastrzemski
The other one I think is an "old timer" around the time of Cobb but I don't remember who.
Derek Jeter your pick for the greatest player is 7 hits shy of 3000.

Hi Tuculia,
Was including the all-time hits leader, Pete Rose, as being a Hall of Famer wishful thinking on your part? lol
Do you think that he should be enshrined there?
