No. He played almost his entire career with the Giants. A couple years with the Mets at the end of his career.
It was a huge deal in New York when he signed with the Mets. National League New York baseball fans were still angry about the Giants and Dodgers leaving. The Mets were the National League replacement of those teams. The Mets uniforms combined Giants and Dodgers colors. The Mets cap was basically a Giants cap in blue. It was like a Willie homecoming.
