Single Season Leaders for Games Played in the National League

A sign of longevity. A sign of health. The ability to play the game at a level high enough to keep you in the starting lineup. Those are a few of the key components needed to make the National League single season games played leader board.

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present the top one-hundred (100) single season leaders in National League games played. Note: A bold faced entry denotes that the player was active during the previous Major League season.
"Bobby Bragan came along and taught me how to switch hit because I was strictly a right-handed hitter. I could do everything but I was afraid of the curve. Not being able to hit that curve ball was the thing that was keeping me from going to the major leagues." - Maury Wills in Beckett (August 2004)
