Look at the first line again and post images of these two players.

Amos Rusie had three 500 inning seasons with the Giants by the age of 21 and was essentially finished by the age of 28.
McGinnity joined the Giants after Rusie was gone and pitched with them in the following decade and continued to pitch in the minors until he was 54.
Both were also in the Legendary Auction recently, although McGinnity was harder to fin in Lot #446 I believe.
