Andruw Jones turns 30 today. Only one player in the past 50 years played in more games before the age of 30 than he has. Who is it?

Joe Charbeneau.

The Mick?

 

[Bobcat10]

Ripken, no?

 

[Urn]

Robin Yount?

I think this might be the answer... Didn't he play his first game in the majors at age 18 or 19?

Now that I think about it...I think it is Yount. He was 18 and a bunch of games that year. He never put up a bunch of 160 game seasons, but the extra ~two years he has on guys like Ripken and Tejada make up the difference.

Griffey.Did he get injured before 30?

Griffey was on the DL at birth.

After looking it up, he's about 100 behind Jones before 30.

He became the Brewers full time SS at age 18 or 19 IIRC.

 

[Greco]

Al Kaline won the freakin batting title at age 19!! He was everyday RF forever!!!

Mel Ott?

 

[The Man With No Name]

Mel Ott?

Ott played 1739 games before turning 30, but that was more than 50 years ago.

 

[Knightro]

I clearly suck at reading comprehension....I completely overlooked that part of the question.

Given that, I think it has to be Yount since he debuted as an 18 year old.

 

[Waggle]

Robin Yount?

Yes.
