"There’s a pretty famous and rather exclusive club in baseball: the four-decade club. Only a few/couple dozen members belong to the club, but in 2010 Omar Vizquel joined it. Actually, that undersells him. He’s really a member of an even more exclusive subset of that club: men who played 100 games in a season in four different decades. That club features only two members: Omar Vizquel and Ted Williams. Now there’s a player pairing you wouldn’t expect."

If my Defense-Only Hall of Fame was in existence, this wouldn’t even be a serious question.
