This may be true. I do know that he was past his prime when he entered the Majors. He was still a great pitcher, though.

Let me check.

Who knows?

Larry Doby...what a great player. I'm sad.

"In 1965, 59 years after Paige's supposed birthday, he took the mound for the last time, throwing three shutout innings for the Kansas City Athletics."

Minnie Minoso was 58 when he retired from baseball (if I looked things up properly). At one point, he was the oldest player to hit safely.

May have found the OLDEST though:

Radcliffe To Become Baseball's Oldest Professional Player

Ted "Double Duty" Radcliffe, the oldest living Negro League star, is set to become the oldest player ever to appear on the roster of a professional baseball team. The 96-year-old Radcliffe is scheduled to take the field in the uniform of the Schaumburg (IL) Flyers on June 19, 1999 in an actual Northern League game against the Fargo-Moorhead Redhawks.

Depends on what kind of stat you want.
