    Check out his history with the Jimmy Fund and his secret trips to Boston hospital to visit kids suffering with cancer. And how on one visit a young boy wouldn't let go of his hand, so Ted asked the nurse if he could borrow a cot and he spent the night with the youngster. So, yeah, compared to Joe D., Ted was a prince.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Btw, Joe D was one of the cheapest bastards who ever lived. Never tipped, never picked up the tab at restaurants, and he never did anything for free. Hell, the Yankems had to pay him to appear in their old timers' games. And in his 9 month marriage to Marilyn he treated her like crap. He wasn't a nice guy.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Williams was obsessed with fishing; Joe was obsessed with Marilyn until the day he died.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    My bad. .802 OPS. I need new glasses.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Dom's 11 year totals were 1046 runs scored, a .298BA, a .383 OBP, and an .802 OPS.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    In 1949 Dom had a 34 game hitting streak.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Of course, Joe got all the press, but brother Dom was a very good ballplayer and many of his contemporaries claimed he was a better defensive CF than Joe.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    This is true. I read that the trade talks went south when the SOX decided they also wanted Berra as part of the deal. I'm not sure the SOX were really serious about trading Williams.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I think you're being kind.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Moon, because you're the king of stats, could you try and find what the SOX's average runs per game are when E-Rod starts?
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Speaking of Teddy Ballgame, the odds of anyone ever hitting .400 again is probably a million to one.
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    During the same period that DiMaggio had his 56 game streak, Ted Williams had a higher batting average.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Actually, the pain in the butt knows his baseball. That's probably why he doesn't go on the Yankem board.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Yup, and also Joe D's 56 game hitting streak.
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    What do they say, Moon. Happy wife, happy life.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Slump. It happens to the best of us.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Moon's damn smart even if he does live in Texas.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    SOX only team in East that won. Yeah, that really is a good thing.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Good to see the SOX win even when the top of the order has a so-so game.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Yippee!
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    In 1938 Johnny Van Der Meer pitched two no-no's in a row. Hasn't happened again since, but it may this year.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I've got that Extra Innings package and the Dodgers/Angels game was scheduled on the same station as this SOX game. The flyer on the bottom of the screen keeps appearing to let viewers know that that game will be seen in progress after the SOX game. Heck, it'll be the 7th or 8th inning by the time this game is over.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Dugo didn't go far enough.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Marwin!
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    These HP chUMPS can't even see the outside pitch; they're just guessing most of the time.
