Description

Julio Franco was also the oldest player ever to hit a grand slam  a pinch -hit home run, two home runs in one game, and to steal two bases in a game. On April 26, 2006, Franco became the second-oldest man in MLB history to steal a base, behind only Arlie Latham, who accomplished the feat in a token appearance at age 49 with the New York Giants in 1909. On July 29, 2006, against the Atlanta Braves, Franco became the oldest player ever to pinch run, when he came in for Carlos Delgado after Delgado was hit by a pitch. He was also known for one of the most unique batting stances.

I will share my memories of him and where he is today.
