Note: Some players on this leaderboard might show up as having 1501 or 1502 hits, which means they hit multiple Hs in the game in which they crossed the milestone. In order to normalize the modern statistics and the historic ones (for which there is no play-by-play data), all the stats shown here are based on per-game statistics. Meaning that the at-bat total might not be the exact at-bat in which the player reached the milestone, only the number of ABs and PAs they had at the conclusion of the game in which they reached the milestone.
This list filters out players born before 1880, as many of them played in the era pre-1901 before game-level boxscores were available, and thus a specific game number when a milestone was achieved couldn't be presented accurately.
