| Chipper Jones and Jason Giambi GW HR
Both hit game winning HR last night at the age of 40. Wonder if thats ever been done before?

| I believe the last time it was even done in the same year was decades ago. It was definitely the first time on the same day. | |

| Wednesday was the first day in MLB history that a pair of 40-year-olds (Chipper Jones, Jason Giambi) hit a walk-off home run. | |
