Luis Olmo - oldest living Brooklyn Dodger

Luis Olmo, an outfielder with the 1943,1944, 1945 and 1949 Brooklyn teams is the oldest living Dodger.
He turns 97 next week. Luis was one of the first stars from Puerto Rico.
His best season was 1945, the year no all-star game was played, but Olmo
had all-star worthy numbers in '45:
10 HR, 110 RBI, .313 b. avg., 174 hits, 15 SB, and a National League-leading
13 triples in 556 at-bats. He finished his MLB career in 1951 with the Boston Braves.
