Tony Zardon, 93, was the 4th oldest Washington Senator
The story that labeled Jose 'Tony' Zardon the oldest living Washington Senator at the time he passed away this week at age 93 ERRED!. He was actually the fourth oldest living player from the original Senators franchise. (See Page 1528, Section 30550)
The correct order is.
1,.Eddie Robinson (9th oldest living major leaguer) - age: 96 yrs., 3 months.
2. Sam Mele (14th oldest major leaguer) - age 95 years, 2 months.
3. Gil Coan (16th oldest major leaguer) - age: 94 years, 10 months.
4. Jose 'Tony' Zardon (23rd oldest major leaguer) was age 93 years, 10 months old until the time of his death on March 21.
Bob Kuzava (93 years, 9 months) now becomes the 4th oldest living Washington Senator with Zardon's passing.
