My favourite ball player was Nellie Fox. What does that tell you? Lost all respect for baseball during the ‘58 players strike. It’s never been the same since. Bring back slippery elm and chewing tobacco.

Fox was a real hustling player! He didn’t get his full due imho. (I don’t remember a players strike in ‘58 though.)

Fox was before my time, but he was one of my mom's favorite Sox players, along with Minnie Minoso. She was a huge Sox fan, she lived near Sox Park since she was born back in the 30's, until the 60's.

I never heard of a strike in 58 thought, I thought that started after the Curt Flood thing.

Baseball’s first strike was in 1972.
