|    16 Mar 25 17:14:13    |
      From: davidc@wa-wd.com              This list has been updated to reflect the death of several players who       have died since 11 July 2022, the last time I posted it. Most notably, Art       Schallock, who was newly at #1 at that time, died ten days ago.              Schallock was the 23rd major leaguer to reach age 100, and at 100 years       and 315 days, is tenth-oldest former major leaguer of all time.              The newest #1 OLML, Bill Greason, must live 174 days to become the 24th       member of the centenarian club.              Players with a (*) had fewer than 200 at bats and 50 innings pitched.              1.
