But Stuffel was also a small part of the 1950 Whiz Kids season with three September appearances. Overall, he made it into seven MLB games over three seasons.

Paul Stuffel had his 89th birthday a few days ago (March 22). He currently is ranked as the 95th oldest player on Wikipedia's Oldest currently Living Major Leaguers list.
Stuffel made his MLB debut on September 16, 1950 while the Whiz Kids Phillies team was desperately trying to hold off a late season surge by the Brooklyn Dodgers to overtake them for 1st place and the National League pennant.
