Joe Judge played 2,084 of his 2,171 career games with the Washington Senators, and while the First Baseman was not what would you call a perennial All-Star, he was a player who could be considered well above average and freakishly consistent. 

Judge was not a large man, even by the standards in when he played but he was a tenacious player both in offense and defense.  Eight times, he would bat over .300, had well over 2,000 Hits as a Senator, and would also be a consistent leader in most defensive metrics at First. 

He may not be a Hall of Famer, but he was a large part of the 1924 World Series Championship Team.
