He had been the seventh oldest living Met.

With his death, Dave Eilers moves into the Top Ten, Craig Anderson into the Top Twenty, and Dick Rusteck is now in the Top Forty.

He had only played outfield for the Phillies, but played third base for the Mets, when the position was still suffering from the Don Zimmer effect.
RIP
