Rockies Lose In Moyer's Season Debut
Sep 3, 2014 8:17 PM
The Astros beat the Rockies 7-3 on Saturday as 49-year-old Jamie Moyer made his season debut.
Moyer became the oldest player to appear in a game since 1980, when 54-year-old Minnie Minoso played in a game for the White Sox.
"Going out to the bullpen, I had a lot of things running through my head," Moyer said. "But once I started running and playing catch, it was all baseball. It was a very good feeling to be where I'd been before and a place I love being."
The Astros have seven players on their roster that weren't born when Moyer made his major league debut on June 16, 1986.
