[edit] Biography

Willie Keeler (William Henry Keeler) was born on March 3, 1872 in Brooklyn, New York. He made his Major League debut on September 30, 1892 for the New York Giants. In 1894, his rookie year, he hit .371 with 5 home runs and 94 RBI. Keeler played for the New York Giants, Brooklyn Bridegrooms, Baltimore Orioles, Brooklyn Superbas and New York Highlanders over the course of his 19 year career.

There is some disagreement on what was Willie Keeler's most productive season. Some believe that it was 1894, when he stole 32 bases, hit for a .371 average and knocked in 94 runs. However, others believe that it was 1896, when he stole 67 bases, hit for a .386 average and knocked in 82 runs.
