So many options but I’ll start with both were sons of an immigrant parent. (So was Stan. Musial by the way). Just a guess.

[RedsFan1941]

each played in the American League with only one team their entire career and wore a single digit on their uniform while dating attractive women.

Each has 3 letters in their first name!

They were both major league baseball players?

They're both male?

Neither one has been in my kitchen?

Both served our country during WWII from 1943-1945 (hi Ted)

[Paul S]

They traded each other's respective 1939 Play Ball cards (sample backs IIRC), but Ted wanted + cash because it was his RC.

Same number of letters in their names. Three in first. Eight in last.

This is easy....don't over think it....what does Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams and Roy Hobbs (Robert Redford in The Natural) have in common ?

I'm sure that most of you have seen the 1984 movie The Natural.

All three (Williams, DiMaggio & Hobbs) played during the 1939 centennial season.

[ls7plus]

Each had a uniform number that was divisible by 9--Williams and Redford (Roy Hobbs) each wore 9, while DiMag originally wore 18 in spring training in 1936.

Hi, Ted,
