Jay Franklin (who?)/Dave Winfield

Wow, I think it was Dave Winfield for me too. He was the last player in baseball older than me (born Aug 1952).

[Peter_Spaeth]

I would think Phil Niekro, Tommy John and Nolan Ryan would come up.

I got the same ones. Alvarez seems pretty amazing,

Wilson Alvarez was the first player to debut who was younger than you. He was born on ‎3‎/‎24‎/‎1970 and he made his debut on ‎7‎/‎24‎/‎1989, so he was 19! Learn more about him at Retrosheet.


That makes me doubt the accuracy, for me there's almost a 7 year difference between us, I can't imagine that nobody born somewhere in between started in the majors between 1982 and 89

[Peter_Spaeth]

They use Minoso too on the old end which is essentially meaningless as his very late appearances were just publicity stunts.

still counts. Lots of guys in majors who were not as good as others in minors or negro leagues or whatever and were there for politics or just being friends with the manager and not on ability....so thats a long winding road.

Looks like A-rod beat me to the majors....

Me too

He did get a hit in his 1976 try, which is far better than I'd manage.


Yes, batted in a cage that had ML speed, managed one foul tip that barely touched the bat in 40 pitches. Not much chance of hitting live pitching....

[savedfrommyspokes]

Benji Gil/Raul Ibanez , who would have thought.

[cardinalcollector]

Frank are those for your wife or grandson?:D:D

[Exhibitman]

First player younger than you: Ed Correa was the first player to debut who was younger than you. He was born on 4/29/1966 and he made his debut on 9/18/1985, so he was 19!

Last player older than you: Jamie Moyer was the last player older than you to play in the majors. He was born on 11/18/1962 and last played on 5/27/2012, so he was 49. Sorry, pal, it's not gonna happen for you.

[Dboneesq]

Me: Brian Greer and Jesse Orosco.

My dad: Bud Swartz and Minnie Minoso

[frankbmd]

No, they are my own, but questions of this nature need to specify which wife or which grandson going forward.

[Peter_Spaeth]

No, they are my own, but questions of this nature need to specify which wife or which grandson going forward.

As the Sondheim line goes, it's not so hard being married, I've done it three or four times.
