Following up on Johnny Damon and Rusty Staub from the other night, name players with 1000 or more hits for two different teams. So far I have found 3.

Heck, I should have thought of that one. I watch nearly every Angel game and I am sure he just celebrated his 1,000 hit as an Angel.

In addition to those named correctly above, players to collect 1,000 or more hits for two different teams during their careers are Jake Beckley (Pirates/Reds), Buddy Bell (Indians/Rangers), Eddie Collins (White Sox/A's), Fred Clarke (Louisville/Pirates), Joe Cronin (Senators/Red Sox), Carlton Fisk (Red Sox/White Sox). Jimmie Foxx (A's/Red Sox), Frankie Frisch (Giants/ Cardinals), Bid McPhee (Cincinnati of the American Association/Reds), Tris Speaker (Red Sox/Indians) and Dave Winfield (Padres/Yankees). Several players are/were very close, Andre Dawson, Ken Griffey Jr, Manny Ramirez, etc

No way, I just started looking at players stats to come up with a few then did a search and found the rest. Good question though.

OK how about 5 pitchers with 120 plus wins for two different teams?

Nolan Ryan has to be one, then I would guess Clemens has to be another one. I can't think of anyone else except Alexander and Young already mentioned, maybe Catfish Hunter ?

The 1st guy that came to my mind is Lefty Grove
White Borders

Greg Maddux with the Cubs ('86-'92 and '04-'06) and the Braves ('93-'03).
Cy Young with Cleveland and Boston
Grover Alexander with the Phillies and Cubs
John Clarkson with the Chicago White Stockings and the Boston Beaneaters
Jim Galvin with the Buffalo Bisons and Pittsburgh Pirates

I think Mussina is correct and Johnson and Perry are wrong.

Yep. Just looked it up. Johnson only had 118 wins with Arizona.

There is a really bad joke that can be inserted here...but I'm going to let it go...
I was pretty sure I'd get the pitchers right but evidently I don't know the trivia as well as I did as a kid...
