Age is a case of mind over matter.
If you don't mind, then it don't matter. Ain't no man can avoid being born average, but there ain't no man got to be common. Don't look back, something may be gaining on you. How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? All quotations from Satchel Paige |

In 1991 The LVMSBL introduced the Over 40 Division. The Pirates, Mets, and Red Sox formed the League with the Kings and Braves entering in 1992 and the Yankees in '93. The Over 40 has grown
nationally and is one of the more competitive divisions in the MSBL.
Note: several players are unidentified (it was a long time ago) so we're hoping someone with a better memory can aid us in naming these players and any others on this website.
