In this April 23, 2013 photo, Conrado Marrero, the world's oldest living former major league baseball player, poses for a photo as he holds his baseball cap and an unlit cigar in his mouth two days before is 102nd birthday at his home in Havana, Cuba. In addition to his longevity, the former Washington Senator has much to celebrate this year. After a long wait, he finally received a $20,000 payout from Major League baseball granted to old-timers who played between 1947 and 1979. The money had been held up since 2011 due to issues surrounding the 51-year-old U.S. embargo on Cuba, which prohibits most bank transfers to the Communist-run island. But the payout finally arrived in two parts, one at the end of last year, and the second a few months ago, according to Marrero's family. (AP Photo/Franklin Reyes)

FILE - In this Dec. 26, 2012, file photo, Central Michigan offensive linesman Eric Fisher blocks against Western Kentucky during the second half of the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl NCAA college football game at Ford Field in Detroit. Only twice since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970 has an offensive tackle been drafted first overall. On Thursday night, the Kansas City Chiefs could make it three. Luke Joeckel and Fisher are the hot names to go No. 1, assuming the Chiefs still have the pick. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio, File)
