Wow, this is really good. You got to go check out what Joe Posnanski wrote about Stan Musial.
Stan Musial never got thrown out of a game. Never. Think about this for a moment. Musial played in 3,026 games in his career, or about as many as his contemporaries Joe DiMaggio and Johnny Pesky played combined. He played across different American eras — he played in the big leagues before bombs fell on Pearl Harbor, and he retired a few weeks before Kennedy was shot. He played when Jimmy Dorsey and Glenn Miller ruled the Top 40 charts, and he played when Elvis was thin, and he played when Chubby Checker twisted. He played before television, and after John Glenn orbited the earth. And he never once got thrown out of a baseball game.

Yes, he was gene spliced with hotdogs, apple pie, and a Chevrolet Impala. He got a little of that Louis Armstrong temperament in the mix too.
And later to keep him going he was abducted one more time and given some of that Elvis belly fat stem cells, and a Chubby Checker cheek cell to prepare his walk with God without dying.
