I still have my Ted Williams-autographed baseball. It was a foul ball that he hit at old Griffith Stadium in DC in 1956.

Wonder what I could get for my autographed picture of Ted Williams? As a Yankee fan (they were the parent team of my local International League franchise), I didn’t like the Red Sox but always admired the ability and character of Ted Williams.

Are Ted Williams’ head and other remains still languishing in some cryogenic cell somewhere?

Beyond sick.

That pic is an exhibition game the Red Sox played against Columbua in Manhattan on their way North after breaking Spring Break in 1938.

I wonder when they’ll auction Ted Williams’ head?
