$age_result = mysql_query("select AVG(age) as avgage FROM bat_rost WHERE
ownerID = '$teamID'");
$row = mysql_fetch_row($age_result);
$average_age=$row[0];
echo "Average age of ".$teamID." is ".$average_age;

or

$age_result = mysql_query("select AVG(age) as avgage FROM bat_rost WHERE
ownerID = '$teamID'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($age_result);
$average_age=$row["avgage"];
echo "Average age of ".$teamID." is ".$average_age;

read the php manual pages on stuff like mysql_fetch_row and
mysql_fetch_array etc.
