I didn't remember John Henry dying just a couple years after Ted at age 35.

Yes I remember the shite show of him trying to play minor league ball. I kind of feel sorry for him. He clearly didn't have any relationship with his dad until much later in life.

I felt the same way until Ted's fishing guide friend shared some details about the last years.

John Henry got his and then some.

I enjoyed it. I found it very informative and liked how it was geared towards his life outside of baseball

For having only an hour, albeit no commercials, it was amazing how much they covered.

Very well done.

Underwood, Montville, and Bradlee Jr included. I was glad to see Claudia involved too.

Craziness.

For my money, Williams and Bonds are the two best hitters of all time.
