Someone needs to fix Vic Barnhart on there, not only is his birth date wrong(he was born in 1922) the link on his page goes to a different player on baseball-reference. He was born on the same date as Joe Astroth(A's player from the 40-50's) and both are still alive at 89 years old

Please check out my books on baseball history. They include the bio of star second baseman Dots Miller. A book featuring 20 Moonlight Graham players who got into just one game. Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history. All five can be found here:
