As coach James Herman "Jimmie" Reese (born Hyman Solomon; October 1, 1901 – July 13, 1994) was an American Major League Baseball (MLB) infielder.

Born Hyman Solomon to Russian Jewish immigrants in New York City, Hymie, as he was called, was brought up in Los Angeles where he attended Rolling Hills Prep.

[4] In September 1927 he was traded by the Oakland Oaks, of the Pacific Coast League, to the New York Yankees with Lyn Lary and US$100,000 (US$1,754,023 today).

In November, 1931, he was sent by the Yankees to the St. Paul Saints (American Association), to complete an earlier deal made in June, 1931, for Johnny Murphy, Jack Saltzgaver, cash, and 2 players to be named.

Reese served in the Army from November 1942 to July 1943 with the 12th Armored Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, where he managed the baseball team.

[4] After the war, he worked as a scout for the Boston Braves for two years, and coached in San Diego from 1948 until 1960, when he was appointed manager.

He threw out the ceremonial first pitch at the 1989 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, played at Anaheim Stadium.

At his death, Reese was believed to be the oldest person ever to regularly wear a uniform in an official capacity in the history of organized professional baseball in North America.

Ted Radcliffe and Buck O'Neil made appearances in professional games at older ages, but those were one-off ceremonial events.
