When he retired, Jamie Moyer had faced 8.9% of all hitters in Major League Baseball history. I believe this is the record.

The all time hit king in the minor leagues is Spencer Harris, who somehow managed to play 26 minor league seasons and record 3,538 hits between 1921 and 1948, spanning ages 20 to 47.
He also had 94 career major league hits. Combined, he had 3,632 hits in professional baseball. |

Billy Purtell was the " first player in major league history to strike out twice in the same inning, suffering the indignity at the hands of Walter Johnson. "
Not sure who was having the worse inning.... Pretty sure Addie Joss holds the career lowest WHIP .

Upon completing his career, this second baseman joined Rogers Hornsby and Joe Morgan as the only second basemen in history to score 1,000 runs, have 1,000 RBIs, collect 2,000 hits, and launch 200 home runs....

Curry Foley was the first to hit for a cycle in 1882. He began with a grand slam home run in the first inning and completed the cycle in the fifth inning of a 20-1 nail biter. He held the record for the quickest cycle for 118 years.

Although he isn't in this discussion because the leagues were smaller, Jim Kaat pitched to one batter (Ted Williams) who started 1939 and another (Julio Franco) who retired in 2007.
