My grandfather and I used to talk baseball all the time. Ted was his favourite player. Partly, I think , because they were both pilots in WW2. He says of the newer players, only Griffey Jr and Olerud had swings like Ted's.

An incredible hitter. If it was not for his service in WWII, he would undoubtedly be the MLB Hits king.
