Couldn't let this thread of Ted's pass by w/out showing my pic & autos of one of the famous plays of the World Series---the '41 "passed Ball" incident!
Got this in 1993 when I set up at one of Mike Riccio's shows in Stamford CT where Mickey & Tommy were both autograph guests for the weekend.
I had the great pleasure to sit in the motel bar right after the Sat show w/ Tommy Henrich & drink Budweisers for about an hour & 1/2 while he told story after story about every Yankee he ever knew or played w/--from Ruth right up until he saw Mantle arrive for Spring Training in 1950.
Greatest thrill I ever had talking to a ballplayer and will never forget it!
