[Orioles1954]

Happy 100th Birthday Tony Malinosky, the oldest former big leaguer! Had a few at bats for the 1937 Brooklyn Dodgers then risked his life at the Battle of the Bulge during World War II. A nice article from MLB

Ernie Kershaw, 1939 pitcher for the Vancouver Capilanos of the Western International League, also turns 100, tomorrow. Here's Ernie in 2003 with a team photo and I've also pictured his Vancouver Senior Amateur card:

Ernie looks great in that photo for being 94+! Hope they're both still happy and healthy.
