3 Manny Ramirez Manuel S. "Manny" Ramírez is an American football guard for the Chicago Bears of the National Football League.
4 Joey Votto
5 Larry Walker
6 Miguel Cabrera José Miguel Cabrera Torres, commonly known as Miguel Cabrera and nicknamed "Miggy", is a Venezuelan professional baseball first baseman who plays for the Detroit Tigers of Major League Baseball.
7 Ryan Braun Ryan Joseph Braun, nicknamed "The Hebrew Hammer", is an American baseball left fielder for the Milwaukee Brewers of Major League Baseball.
8 Lance Berkman
9 David Ortiz David Américo Ortiz Arias, nicknamed "Big Papi," is a Dominican American former professional baseball designated hitter and occasional first baseman who played 20 Major League Baseball seasons, primarily with the Boston Red Sox, but also with the Minnesota Twins.
10 Ichiro Suzuki Ichiro Suzuki, often referred to mononymously as Ichiro, is a Japanese former professional baseball outfielder.

He had the most hits of any player during that time, also set the record for consecutive 200-hit seasons (10, starting in 2001), and the single-season hit record (262, previously 258 which had been the record for 80 years prior). Hard to say the player that got the most hits isn't the best hitter, and even worse is the fact that he wasn't on the list until I just now entered his name. Dude is a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

The Contenders
11 Alex Rodriguez Alexander Emmanuel Rodriguez, nicknamed "A-Rod", is an American former professional baseball shortstop and third baseman. He played 22 seasons in Major League Baseball for the Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers, and New York Yankees.
