ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Even the most zealous Los Angeles Angels fan might pause a moment when asked if the name Bartolo Colon is familiar.
They should know, but it has been more than a decade since Colon won the American League Cy Young Award for the Angels in 2005, when he went 21-8 with a 3.48 ERA and led the team to the playoffs. They will reunite with him Tuesday night when he starts for the Atlanta Braves.
Colon, 44, is the oldest player in the major leagues in a career that has been nothing short of unusual.
