If you were asked who is the oldest living Dodger, who would you guess? It is easy to guess Tommy Lasorda, Don Newcombe and Carl Erskine for us oldtimers and probably Tommy and Newk for the younger set. It turns out there are 18 players living who put on a Brooklyn Dodger uniform so most of us would be stumped in trying to pinpoint the oldest living Dodger.
I decided it might be fitting to acknowledge them regardless of how many games they played as a Dodger. Each one of these men had a dream similar to the dreams of the young high school and college players today.
