I have no idea.  I misread Justin's "Morgan" guess and assumed it was a pitcher I wasn't thinking of.

Question 42:

What is the longest post-1950 career spent with a single team for a non-Hall of Famer, and who was it?

Not a bad guess at 15 years, but not quite.

Did McCarver play anywhere other than St Louis?

Had a brief stint in Montreal and actually several years for Philly, apparently.

Five, if you can believe it.

Most of it was end-of-career time, though he still saw a considerable amount of playing time.

Sweet Lou it is!  19 years with the Tigers.

Though I actually just found out Dave Concepcion also spent the same number of years with the Reds for his entire career, so either answer would have worked.

I had forgotten that Baines played for the Tribe. Looked at his stats and in 1999, he hit one homer for them.
