Well done!

Sam Jethroe was indeed the oldest ROY ever, winning it at age 33 in 1950 when he integrated the Boston Braves.

There have only been seven players 27 years or older to win the award.

Other notable winners include Kazuhiro Sasaki (age 32) who won it for Seattle in 2000, Ichiro at age 27, and Jacke Robinson at age 28.
