  1. You found not one but TWO Teddy Ballgame photos I had never seen before. First, that sweet one of him kneeling in the Senators uni. And secondly, how could I never have seen that awesome shot of him and the bathing beauty and the fishing pole? That might be my new favorite Ted Williams picture of all time. Good stuff as always, Hack.
