Getting your player ready...
Emilio Navarro swivels his hips, then bends down to touch his toes. Not bad for someone who’s 104 years old. He is known to go out dancing. He doesn’t use glasses, either. “And I don’t have many wrinkles,” he said in Spanish. Now the former professional baseball player is being honored as America’s outstanding oldest male worker for 2010 — Navarro keeps the books and controls the finances at the game machine business he started in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Navarro is believed to be the last surviving player of the Negro American League. At 17, he signed with the Ponce Lions and went on to play for the New York Cuban Stars.
