Being from around the Philadelphia area, I hear too many Lenny Dykstra/car wash jokes. For some reason, I would have never guessed it was The Dude. Nice trivia question.

Not Maury Wills. Here's a big hint. The guy who holds the record for most plate appearances in a season now owns a car wash in California. Not Dave Cash. Not Maury Wills.

We already got at-bats... For plate appearances, I'm going to guess Dave Cash. My second guess is Maury Wills.

And a guy who never gets hurt or misses any time... What about Derek Jeter, in one of those seasons back he led off every day for the Yankees? Although I dont think Jeter has any sort of Juan Samuel connection... Well, it has got to be a leadoff hitter on a very, very good offensive team. And a guy who never gets hurt or misses any time…

Juan Samuel is not. But Samuel does share some history with the player who holds the record for most plate appearances in a season. Willie Wilson is correct. Juan Samuel is not.

Plate appearances? I might've guessed Ichiro, but you already said that was wrong, so I'll go with Juan Samuel.
