I knew about this but I don’t know that I’ve ever seen it. It’s Hall of Famer Luke Appling in an old timers game in 1982. When he was 75 years old, mind you, hitting a home run. In the pitcher-friendly RFK Stadium, no less!

Wednesday night’s game at PNC Park between the Brewers and Pirates has been postponed, Bill Brink of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Brent Suter and Chad Kuhl were scheduled to square off on the mound. Their starts will likely be pushed back to Thursday. The Pirates will host the Diamondbacks and the Brewers will host the Cardinals.
The Cubs won on Wednesday afternoon, so the Brewers are tied with the Cubs for first place in the NL Central. The Pirates are seven games back in fourth place.
