Ossie Bluege

Oswald Louis Bluege (/ˈbluːɡiː/;October 24, 1900 – October 14, 1985) was an American third baseman, manager, coach and front-office executive in Major League Baseball who spent his entire playing career with the Washington Senators franchise from 1922 to 1939.

He would remain on the team's payroll in key on- and off-field capacities until 1971, long after it became the Minnesota Twins.

Bluege was the last surviving member of the Senators' 1924 World Series championship team, the franchise's only world champion before it relocated to Minnesota in 1961.

He threw and batted right-handed, stood 5 feet 11 inches (1.80 m) tall and weighed 162 pounds (73 kg).
