	Hughie Jennings: The Tigers' "Eee-Yah" man
		Jennings would stand in the first-base coaching box, raise his fists, kick one leg into the air and yell: "Here we are." Finally, by sacrificing consonants for simplicity, this became "Eee-Yah." The fans would pick up the chant whenever Jennings would step onto the field, and sounds would ring through old Bennett Park.
		Jennings had been a shortstop for the old Baltimore Orioles in the late 1800's, and his greatest claim to fame - the one that caught the attention of everyone in baseballl - is how well he get along with Ty Cobb.
		Jennings was such a likeable man that umpire Tim Hurst said: "Hughie has a grin that echoes." An educated man who passed his bar examination while managing the Tigers, Jennings was one of the early dugout psychologists who probed the player's psyches to bring out their best.

	Hughie Jennings
		Operating within and outside the rules, Jennings and teammates John McGraw, Willie Keeler, Joe Kelley, and Wilbert Robinson were the scourge of opponents and umpires.
		In addition, he stole as many as 70 bases in a season and was the leader in fielding average and putouts three times each.
		Although his hitting declined in later years, and a sore arm forced a move back to first base, Jennings' remained gainfully employed as a player-manager because of his superior skills as a strategist and field leader.

		Jennings kept up this scholar-athlete act until the spring of 1904, when he left campus early to manage the Orioles, never finishing the degree.
		Jennings went on to greater fame, not as a barrister but as the longtime manager of the Detroit Tigers, where his "Eee-Yah!" cry and other coaching antics (in 1907, he was suspended for taunting opponents with a tin whistle) made him a fan favorite.
		Behind the clowning, Jennings was a canny motivator who led the Tigers to three straight pennants and kept the famously mean Ty Cobb under a modicum of control for fourteen years.

	Baseball Prospectus - Breaking Balls: Record Breaking
		The all-time leader is Hughie Jennings, who got plunked 287 times in his 17-year Hall of Fame career.
		Jennings is interesting--that 17-year career includes a 1903 season where he only appeared in six games, and after four years, a game in 1907, two games in 1909, and one game each in 1912 and 1918, at the age of 49.
		Jennings is said to have been a real hustling player and a vicious bastard, which may have been why he got plunked all the time: 51 times in 1896, 46 times each in 1897 and 1898 (good for three of the top four spots on the single-season leaderboard).
