Signed prior to the 1898 Season, Chance had a streak of four consecutive years where he batted over .300. The First Baseman would also show a good batting eye, as he would finish in the top four in the NL in On-Base Percentage, including a top spot in 1905 where he had an exemplary .450 in that metric. Chance would lead the National League in Stolen Bases twice (1903 & 1906), and for five straight years (1903-07), he was in the top seven in bWAR for Position Players.
As a Cub, he would bat .297 with an OBP of .394 with 402 Stolen Bases.
The Old Timers Committee would elect Chance to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1946.
