hey! there are some great posts tonight!

just talking to someone about Jimmy Stewart and now Ted Williams?

I believe that Ted was the greatest ball player of all time. and a Real Man!

Think what he would have done if it was not for his time in the service! but he was no shirker.

when i was young i bought everything that had “Ted Williams” on it.

trying to remember if it was from montgomery wards or sears. one of the two, just can’t remember. think it was sears.

blessings, bobo

Ted Williams was the real article! A great athlete, a great Marine, and a great American!

One of the things Ted had going for him both as a baseball player and a fighter pilot was his extremely acute vision. I think I read that he tested out at 20/5 on vision. I recall having heard that he stated he could detect the spin of a curve ball at no more than 5 feet from the pitcher's arm. Career batting average - .344. Batting average 1958 - at age 40 - .388. 'Nuff said!
