Jimmy Foxx; The Beast


Listen Later

This week we examine the life and career of one of baseballs most prodigous power htters that ever lived, Jimmy Foxx; The Beast. The powerful farm boy from Sudlersville, MD, who was signed by Connie Mack at the age of 16, and made his major league debut, before the end of his high school junior year. Even though, he is statistically, the most dominate major league hitter of the 1930's decade, Double X is often overshadowed, by the baseball deities of his era, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. #JimmyFoxx #SamFoxx #DorothyYard #ConnieMack #PhiladelphiaAthletics #BostonRedSox #LeftyGrove #TedWilliams #ShibePark #FenwayPark #ChicagoCubs #PhiladelphiaPhillies #MickeyCochrane #MaxBishop #TomYawkey #JoeCronin #MoeBerg
