Jimmy Stewart played in a movie as either a baseball player or a professor that invented a baseball that when hit the baseball would travel a very long distance. He either played the part of a baseball player or as the professor.(not sure)

What Actor Played A Baseball Player The Best?

If you are talking about Quality Acting about a Quality Story about a true Baseball MLB Player, I'd rate it like this.
1. Anthony Perkins playing Jimmy Piersall in "Fear Strikes Out"
2. Barry Pepper playing Roger Maris & Thomas Jane playing Mickey Mantle in "61".
3. Gary Cooper playing Lou Gehrig in "The Pride of the Yankees".
4. Tommy Lee Jones playing Ty Cobb in "Cobb"
You'd have to see these Baseball Movies to know where I'm coming from. Especially #1. What a story.

He played in the minors im told.and high school.

I think 2 good Example are Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera

most seasons with rookie status
ie the season he passes the rookie AB or PA threshold, and will not be eligible for ROY award in the subsequent season, is his last season as a rookie

Surprisingly, Yogi is tied for 1625th place with 9. I thought he'd be higher myself.

Two players wore 12 different big-league uniforms in their careers.
Mike Morgan made his debut in 1977, just after being a No. 1 pick of the Oakland A's, and played through 2001. His other stops: New York (Yankees), Toronto, Seattle, Baltimore, Los Angeles (Dodgers), Chicago (Cubs), St. Louis, Cincinnati, Minnesota, Texas and Arizona. And that doesn't even include three years spent entirely in the minors - 1980, 1981 and 1984.
The other was Deacon McGuire, a catcher whose career spanned from 1884 in the American Association (the forerunner of the American League) all the way through 1912. Incidentally, McGuire's 25 big-league seasons (he also spent three in the minors after making his big-league debut) are the most ever by a catcher.
The active record is held by Terry Mulholland, who pitched for 11 different major league teams
and
Kenny Lofton who played for 11 different major league teams despite playing 9 of his 17 major league seasons with the Cleveland Indians. That leaves 8 seasons split among 10 teams. Other than Cleveland he has never spent more than one season with one team.
Todd Zeile also finished his career with 11 different teams.

I just want to know your Opinion.
