Teddy ballgame had an outstanding career. He was drafted in 1938, 1st overall by the Cincinnati Reds and he went on to be an 8 time MVP, 10 time all star and a gold glove winner. He also won the 1946 triple crown. In his 22 year career that ended up in the Hall of Fame, Ted never once got to hold the World Series Trophy. After 6 season with the Reds and having them not make the playoffs even with Ted, the Reds declined to pick up the contract of Williams and he signed a 4 year contract with the Boston Red Sox. He would never play again for another team. He played 16 season with the Red Sox but he only made the playoffs 3 times due to a horrible team that surrounded him.

Williams is the active leader in career home runs with 682.

Here are his stats...

GP 2885 AB 9896 R 2267 H 3192 2B 479 3B 68 HR 682 RBI 2069 BB 2560 SO 1062 SB 91 AVE .323 OBP .460 SLG .591 OPS 1.051
