Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jose Quintana joined some rare—and elite company—after earning the win in his debut for the Milwaukee Brewers at Chase Field in Phoenix, Ariz., on Friday.
Quintana, who tossed seven scoreless innings in the Brewers' 7-0 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, became just the 24th pitcher in MLB history to defeat all 30 current teams.
Here's a list of all 24 pitchers who have accomplished the feat, as well as the teams they played for when they joined the exclusive club.

Quintana, 36, has pitched for eight teams in 14 big-league seasons. He has compiled a 3.73 ERA and 1,729 strikeouts in 334 career starts.
