    The evidence is just overwhelming that he was born in or right around 1930.
    Most close to him did not believe otherwise.
    His appearance is not a good measure-many look oler than they are without being a hard living, often imprisoned hard drinker or alcoholic.
    Look at this pitching legend-appropriately known as "Ole Pete"-when he was still an active athlete: [url]https://www.gettyimages.com/photos/pete-alexander-st-louis?mediatype=photography&phrase=pete%20alexander%20st%20louis&sort=mostpopular[/url]

    He looks much older than he is, a bigger gap than Sonny Liston.
    And like Sonny, at least later in his career he seems to have become an alcoholic.
