15th all time (since 1900).

But, what exactly do you want to define as his "era"?

over the course of Whitey's career, no other pitcher really comes close to Whitey's RSAA
the closest is Jim Bunning with 255

CrazyDiamond answered it for me, I should have been specific but I was looking for 1950->1970
