Ted Williams revealed the five greatest baseball players he ever saw, and his choices reveal how one of baseball’s greatest hitters judged the men around him. From the hitters he respected to the pitcher who stayed on his mind for days, these were players Ted Williams could never ignore.
In this video, we look at five baseball legends who stood out through Ted Williams’ eyes: Hank Aaron, Bob Feller, Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, and Joe DiMaggio.
Ted Williams spent his life studying hitting, pitchers, timing, and the smallest details of Major League Baseball. His memories of these Hall of Fame players offer a fascinating look at what greatness meant to a man who understood the game from inside the batter’s box.
Discover why Ted admired Hank Aaron’s approach at the plate, why Bob Feller demanded his attention before the game even began, why Willie Mays was so difficult to define, and why Mickey Mantle became a target for Williams late in his career.
And then there was Joe DiMaggio. Ted believed he was the better hitter, but when he judged the complete ballplayer, he made a distinction that says a great deal about both men.
