Item Details
Description
We have beautiful signed Album page 4 3/8" x 6'' removed from an autograph album book. Ted Williams (1918 - 2002) swinging at bat. He always wanted to be the best hitter. He accomplished his goal. Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron may have been better power hitters. You could argue that the graceful Joe DiMaggio or Willie Mays was a better all-around player. If you're talking about the greatest hitter that ever stepped into the batter's box, the discussion begins with the long-time Red Sox left fielder, Ted Williams. He won six batting titles thanks to an excellent batting eye, Williams led the American League in on-base percentage seven straight years and 12 times overall. Williams led the AL in home runs four times, and his .634 career slugging percentage is second to only Ruth. He did all of it despite missing most of five seasons due to military service. He learned to fly fighter planes during World War II, working as an instructor from 1943-1945. He was recalled to duty in 1952 during the height of the Korean War, and he served in Korea for more than a year, flying combat missions in a Marine fighter jet.
