Like the last post, I used relative values. All players here had 5000+ PAs through 2012. Kingman's career SLG of .478 was 22% higher than average while his OBP was 9% below average. So his ratio here is 1.34 (122/91).

Two players you never see very nearly juxtaposed on a list: Dave Kingman and Babe Ruth.
