...could have stayed out with .3996, but went 6-8 the next day, and went .406 for the season....last 400 hitter, two tours in the military, lost 5 years, even though he was with the "red sox" over "alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll" those seasons without a world series win...(sorry Andy), my Grandmother loved them..................

...Every team has it's Hero's, Ted was respected by every team...
