The Yankees are so old. How old are they?

They're so old ... they're so old ... ummm ... I got nothing:

"Hiroki Kuroda turns 38 in February.

Andy Pettitte turns 41 in June, the same month Derek Jeter turns 39.

A-Rod’s 38th birthday is in July and Ichiro turns 40 next year and the great Mariano Rivera is already 43.

And you have to wonder if any baseball team with this many geezers on it has ever won a World Series."

Too bad they didn’t bring back Raul Ibanez — he turns 41 next season — just so he could sit with the other old guys when they’re talking about the Beatles."

The Beatles?

That's your go-to Generation Gap reference point?

The Beatles are the band a 60-year-old imagines 40-year-olds talk about when 40-year-olds reminisce about music.
