Baseball Trivia (General)/no stolen bases in most games played

Question
Which player has played in the most MLB games without stealing a base ?

Answer
Hi Ryan,

Nice to hear from you again.

Unfortunately, records about not stealing bases aren't recorded in terms of games played, they are stated in terms of at-bats.  For instance, pitcher Mike Timlin has appeared in 980 games in his career with no stolen bases.  He only has 7 at-bats though.

The record for most at bats in a season with no stolen bases is 677.  Don Mattingly set this record in 1986.

Best Wishes,

Geoff
