This feels like a great time to share the following quote from the movie, Moneyball:
We’re all told at some point in time that we can no longer play the children’s game, we just don’t… don’t know when that’s gonna be. Some of us are told at eighteen, some of us are told at forty, but we’re all told.
Former Mets reliever, Dae-Song Koo, has effectively dodged this issue much longer than anyone would’ve expected. I don’t know how I missed this when it happened, but the 53-year-old has appeared in three games for Geelong-Korea in the Australian Baseball League this season.
