I think he did exceptionally well for a 69 year old (his birthday was in May so he was 69 for most of the season) even though it was the worst of his career. 28 years after he last threw a pitch in the majors Bender went 7-22, 7.88 ERA, 252 innings, 323 hits, 34 strikeouts (the 34 saddest batters of all-time), 69 walks, 39 home runs allowed.

I should note that I disabled AI roster moves and installed him in the rotation for the season. He retired again immediately after the year.
