Who were the only two American league batters to ever lead the league 3 consecutive seasons, in Total Bases ?

Teddy led the league in 42, 46-47 (3 consecutive seasons that he participated in) as well. Surprising how few people have done 3 in a row in the AL.
In the NL its been done a number of times.
Wagner 06-09
Hornsby 20-22
Klien 30-33
Medwick 35-37
Mize 38-40 (I guess the 30's were a good time to dominate in TB's!)
Aaron 59-61
