Playing in the major leagues until the age of 40 is an accomplishment in itself. Playing at an elite level, that’s just unheard of. Well, Nelson Cruz isn’t like every player.
At the age of 39 last year, Cruz finished the season with 41 homers and 108 RBI. He’s picked up right where he left off so far this season, including yesterday. On Sunday, Cruz had one of the best games of his career. He finished with two homers, seven runs driven in and two doubles.... at 40!
Nelson Cruz today:
4-5, 2 bombs, 2 doubles
