said Paul Reid of the Palm Beach Post.

Reid was interviewing Teddy Ballgame late in Ted’s life.

Sliding a baseball across his kitchen table Ted Williams told Reid, “I was a ballplayer.”  Reid’s reply was, ” like a Ferrari is a car.”

Any baseball fan should consider reading , The Kid –  The Immortal Life of Ted Williams, by Ben Bradley. It’s long but fantastic.
