Washington Senators – Walter Johnson, SP.
Out of the 3,000 strikeout club members Johnson, aka the original “strikeout king”, was the only member for 50+ years. Just one more than Nolan Ryan, Johnson led the league in strikeouts – a record breaking 12 times. With 110 shutouts, Johnson has 20 more than any other player in MLB history.

New York Yankees – Lou Gehrig, FB.
Lou Gehrig honorably has the Yankees’ career RBI record (1,995), which is more than legendary Babe Ruth. But that’s not all that Gehrig holds the top record for. New York Yankees first baseman also holds the best record for highest slugging percentage in a World Series: 1.727% in 1928’s four-game sweep against the Cardinals.
