I was staying at my cousins for a vacation in the late 60s. We went to their well-stocked public library. I well recall coming across a book on baseball history with this full-page shot of Jimmie Foxx in spring training, swinging a bat with his shirt off. My cousin and I were bowled over at his massive muscles. The only other athlete that could compare was hockey great Bobby Hull, who was photographed during the height of his career pitching hay with his shirt off at his cattle ranch.
In his autobiography MY TURN AT BAT, Ted William reminisced about the sound of Jimmie Foxx's line drives. Ted said they sounded like gunfire! The money "Double X" would earn today..... --- Brian Powell |
