Rare color footage of the 1947 Old Timers Game at Yankee Stadium with many all-time greats present. At the end is a clip from 1942 of the 47-year old Babe Ruth hitting a home run off the 55-yr old Walter Johnson.

Hope you can see this video. It's from Facebook.

Nobody up for answering the question?

hint: the achievement does tend to help the slugging percentage.

they are the only players to lead the league in homers, triples, and doubles in a season.

If the other guy with Ty Cobb is indeed Tris Speaker, that can't be the answer because Speaker never led the league in triples if Baseball Reference is accurate.

Nobody has ever accomplished that feat. The closest was Stan Musial in 1948, who led the NL in doubles and triples,  but fell one short of leading in home runs.

clearly, you fail to recognize the genius of my 5th grade  year at school. 

to say i dominated would be a gross understatement of just how much i crushed ricky, mark, ray, and rik.

It's got to be either the Indians or A's player to Yogi's left.   But I don't recognize them right away.    Rocky Colavito?

Photo is from 1953 All-Star Game. He's the A's player. It was his only season with the A's. He played on seven different teams in his 13-year career.

Oh, and he is currently the oldest living former MLB player.
