Charles Cloyd Hostetler (September 22, 1903 – February 18, 1971) was a Major League Baseball outfielder for the Detroit Tigers in 1944 and 1945. He is remembered as baseball's oldest rookie, making his debut in 1944 at age 40, and as the player whose base running error at age 42 cost the Tigers Game 6 of the 1945 World Series. ==The minor leagues== Born in 1903 in McClellandtown, Pennsylvania, Hostetler was considered a great prospect with the Boston Braves, but he was released in 1929. He later played for the Akron Tyrites in the Central League in 1929, hitting .360 in 104 games. He next played later for the Tulsa Oilers in the St. Louis Browns organization, and then in the Washington Senators farm system.〔 Eventually, Hostetler says, "I gave up the idea of playing in the majors." He noted: "When a fellow reaches 35 the thought of playing in the majors is wishful thinking."〔 After nine years in the minor leagues, Hostetler retired—sort of. He left the minor leagues and took on various industrial jobs. But he kept one foot in baseball, playing four or five games a week at semi-pro ball in Wichita, Kansas, and Texas, when his work schedule permitted.〔〔
