At 64, Doc Still Delivers for Cardinals "It's hard to walk away from something you love,'' says Steve "Doc" Parsons, a 64-year-old pitcher for the Westport Cardinals in the Fairfield County Men's Senior Baseball League.

He was Westport's winningest pitcher last year, still throws over 70 mph and most importantly, gets people out. He earned a complete-game victory in the 25-and-over World Series last year.

He had been with some of them since they were 10 years old, but when Jacob asked them over the winter if they were interested in making a run at another title, he got a lukewar…
