RE: TED WILLIAMS an American hero. The baseball legend and maybe greatest hitter ever in rare WWII and Korean fighter pilot photos and commentary.

Ted Williams was one of the best to do it. Appreciate you putting this post together. He was actually given the option to sit-out the final day of the season in 1941 because his average was at .39995 and would have rounded up to .400, but he told his manager no way - he was going to play and finish it out. They had a double-header and Teddy went 6 for 8 I believe in the two game to raise it up to .406 for the season. What a way to finish off the season! Great post
