Reggie Jackson played for the Orioles in 1976
| ||
Steve Carlton pitched in 6 games for the Giants in 1986
| ||
Wow. Well done. And fast. I wish I had that kind of time😀
| ||
Fun list. Any guys at the tail end of their careers are a good bet. Seaver with White Sox, Dave Parker with Oakland, Joe Morgan with Oakland, etc.
| ||
Fun list and really can't top #43!! I might offer up Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the Bucks in first few years before the Lakers or Kareem Jabbar as it shows on one of the cards I found in the database.

As a Suns fan, the Steve Nash one still stings really bad.
| ||
Great list! Here's one you could add. Andre Reed with the Redskins

Loved looking at the cards. Great idea. I've got a couple of suggestions: Gaylord Perry finished his career with the Royals. 1984 Fleer, Card #352. Warren Spahn's last regular Topps card- 1965 Card #205.
Sidenote: Orlando Cepeda also played his final few games (33) with the Royals in 1974 but I've never found a card of him in a Royals uniform.
| ||
Cool list.

Cool list, a lot of good calls on here from everyone. Well, I thought of hall of fame player and Chicago Cubs great Billy Williams, when he was traded to the Oakland A's at the end of his career.
| ||
Great list! I love that you listed Reggie White when he played for the Panthers! I was a fan of his when he played for Philly, but then he went to GB and later to CAR. I was an even greater fan of him then b/c CAR and GB are my 2 favorite teams (in that order).

Tim Horton, half a season with the Pittsburgh Penguins

Funny, as a Connecticut resident (and not a particular fan of Hockey) I only knew of Gordie Howe as a Whaler. I have no idea where else he played.
I do have a Racing suggestion for your consideration. Dale Earnhardt was famous for driving Richard Childress Racing Chevrolets. Few people remember that he drove Bud Moore Fords in 1982-83:

Great list! I was going to do one on my blog with a similar title but needed to do more scanning first. It would have been NBA only. I literally laughed out loud at the Bruce Jenner joke.
Here's one so obscure theres not even a scan. Celtics great Bob Cousy played 9 games for the Royals. http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/124949/cid/8419708/1970-71-Cincinnati-Royals-Team-Issue-4-Bob-Cousy

Russ Francis, San Francisco 49ers.
However, he's the Patriots player in those days, but won a super bowl ring as a 49er.
