so what does ted williams's batting average have to do with tpp? [laughter] i don't think i'm stretching.

baseball legend ted williams was known as "the splendid splinter," "the beantown belter" and "teddy ballgame." the left-handed hitter and left fielder is the last man to have batted over .400 in a single season. williams grew up in san diego, california, where he became a hitting sensation at herbert hoover high. he signed with the san diego padres while still in school and went on to become a major league baseball legend.
