Here is the link (does not include Jeter):

The most surprising one to me that was NOT on the list is Ozzie Smith.
Answer:
Jeter
Concepcion
Larkin
Trammell
Ripken
(They said those five at the park last night)
Vizquel (says the link I provided)

the AL has 3 players who started at least 2000 of their games with one team. In the AL Ripken, Vizquel and Trammel hold that honor and in the NL Concepcion and Larkin can make claim to it as well.

Here is one, if Tribe fans were watching the other night, they will know however.
Only 2 players have ever had 100+ extra base hits in a season twice. Name them.
Follow up, 13 players have done it once (including the 2 that did it twice), name them?
This is a VERY easy question to look up, so dont do it.

I'd say one of them was probably an Indian so I'll say Albert Belle or Jim Thome. Bonds, Sosa, Ruth have to be at least part of the 13 if not the 2 repeats.
McGwire?

1. Ruth - 119
T-3. Bonds - 107
T-6. Sosa - 103
T-6. Belle - 103
All part of the 13. But not part of the twice. McGwire, Thome no.
