#1 Harmon Killebrew, While the Killer lost something off his home run count his RBI collection remained healthy at 119 good for the top spot in the Junior Circuit....the last hurrah for the Harmon in a major offensive category....Harmon had been the reigning RBI king in 1969 so regaining the RBI mark was a redemption and bright spot in a mediocre Twins season....At #2 Frank Robinson’s register of 99 RBIs somewhat pales in comparison to his Reds glory days and the legendary triple crown year of 1966.....still never reached his 1971 statistics again.....#3 Reggie Smith drove in 96 runs which was his showing in league competition....but personal best was 100 in 1974 but only good for 8th in NL.....Overall total AL run production dropped to 7472 in 1971 down from 8109 in 1970.
