That Mark Corey utilityman fella is not to be confused with 2001-2002 Met reliever/marijuana scandalee Mark Corey.

I particularly like Marvelous Mayoral Candidate Marv Throneberry.

Because he shouldn't be. There were two Mark Corey MLBers. But this was a trick question. Because there are two avian interlopers.

Is Luis Lopez the other? He's wearing a Brewers uni

Thats a weird one. I don't know how that happened. But Lopez was a Met and and an Oriole. So he's not interloping. He's simply dressed inappropriately. But there's no dress code here.

My Endocrinologist's name is Dr. Mora.

She's a big baseball fan and from Maryland.

Her husband is a Mets fan. Her infant children wear Mets kiddie gear.

But, I asked. She isn't related to Melvin Mora.

Time's up! Our other inerloper is Dean Chance, once the youngest player ever to win the Cy Young award. (I wonder who holds that record today?) Chance was signed by the Orioles but selected by the Angels in the 1961 AL expansion team draft before he ever got to the majors. Thus, Chance never appeared in a game for the Orioles. The Chance card, pictured below and in this thread, is an expert DIY custom card created by the late, great Bob Lemke, working from this team issued press photo:

Edit: Chance was left exposed to the 1961 AL expansion draft, but drafted by the new Senators, not the Angels. He was traded to the Angels shortly thereafter for future Met, Joe Hicks.
