Who are the only players to accumulate 400 HR, 500 2B, and 150 3B?
Remember dont look it up.

The triples are tough. Without looking it up, I'd throw out Mays, Ruth and Gehrig. Not sure if Ruth quite got to 150 triples, but they were much more common in his day so he is worth a guess.

I'll throw out Stan Musial's name. I know he had a bunch of triples.

Playing in the Polo Grounds for a while must have helped Willie Mays' triples.

Has to be something like Musial and Gehrig. Triples became a pretty rare commondity after 1950 so I suspect Mays, Aaron, Robinson, Mantle, et al, don't make that number.

Gehrig off the top of my head, positive he had 400 HR and 500 2B, and I remember reading somewhere that he was routinely in the AL season top 10 in triples.
