Bruce Chen Retires After Pitching For 11 MLB teams in 17 seasons

Cleveland Indians LHP Bruce Chen announced his retirement yesterday one month before his 38th birthday. He went 82-81, with a 4.62 ERA.. for 11 MLB teams in 17 seasons (1998-2007 and 2009-2015).
He played with (In chronological order): Atlanta, Philadelphia, NY Mets, Montreal, Cincinnati, Houston, Boston, Baltimore (where he had his career-high 13 wins in 2005), Texas, Kansas City (where spent 6 seasons through 2014 - his longest stint with any team by a large margin) and Cleveland (2015: going just 0-1 in 2 games before retiring.)

Can our members find photos of him in all 11 team uniforms?

Noteworthy: Chen was born and raised in Panama City, Panama. It is believed that Chen's family were imported to Panama from China to work as laborers on the Panama Canal sometime around 1910. After work on the canal was completed they remained there and settled in Panama.
