My first thought was Walter Johnson, but Veeck would be a lot of fun!

I have been looking at this thread since it appeared and there are too many choices so I will categorize... Forgive me in advance.
Negro League ... Buck O'Neill Pioneer .... Cap Anson Manager.... Casey Stengel Pre WW 2 player ....Ty Cobb Post WW 2 player ...Stan Musial Modern post 1980 ... Ichiro Umpire ....Doug Harvey Each era reflects not just baseball but also America , and most players and umpires are good storytellers. One of my favorites was Warren Spahn , but I did not include him since I spent a lot of time with him . Mickey Mantle could tell great stories but would really only open up around people he was comfortable with , he was very guarded . |

Babe Ruth would be my 1st choice.
Anyway, I had a really great conversation with Ted Williams 33 years ago up in Cooperstown. We talked for about an hour on a variety of topics, including BB cards of his. Also, I had a tremendous conversation with Phil Rizzuto while flying in 1st class with Phil to Chicago in April 1984. For 2 hours, we covered about everything and everyone in BB during the timeline from 1947 to 1964. Plus we talked about our neighborhood. Phil lived only 2 blocks away from me when I was a kid growing up in Hillside, NJ. TED Z . Last edited by tedzan; 06-23-2017 at 10:13 PM. Reason: Correct typo. |
