WHO IS Manny Mota?

Set the record for most career pinch-hits, and was so good at his specialty that he played in the major leagues until he was 44 years old. Mota spent the final 13 seasons of his playing career with the Dodgers, and proceeded to serve as a coach for the team for another 34 years. His tenure as a coach for one team is surpassed only by Nick Altrock, who spent 42 years with the Senators.
