a very key factor in the Yankees winning 8 - AL Championships in the course of 10 years.
Therefore, Ted was very instrumental getting Phil into the HOF.
Now, tell me....who are we to question Ted Williams' opinion of a player (Rizzuto) that he closely observed for 12 years of his career ? ?

Everyone including Ted Williams himself is subject to bias. Look at all the players Frank Frisch promoted, he saw them too. But most would argue he was guilty of cronyism.
