Career

I become a professional and pr it

In 1918, I am born in San Diego. "Theodore Samuel" of the name was named his father Samuel Stewart Williams for President Theodore Roosevelt.

The talent attracted attention from Herbert Hoover high school days of local San Diego and has already received the offer from St. Louis Cardinals and the New York Yankees during high school attendance at school. However, Williams made a contract as local Padres and high school attendance at school that still belonged to a minor league in those days because mother still objected to leave San Diego when too young. Williams belonged to Padres and Minneapolis mentioned above in a minor league and asked about an opportunity of the Major League promotion.

Active play era

A debut major in 1939. I played an active part from the first year and won a title of the RBI king by batting average .327, home run 31, 145 runs batted in of activity.

Expectation of batting average 40% enters 1941, and leave doubleheader with Philadelphia Athletics on the last day in a season; and batting average .3995. The batting average rounded off hair and was to a price of 厘, and absence was recommended to the record top from all around at this point in time because it was batting average 40%. However, Williams participates in doubleheader. While the building Mago one of the ball umpire swept the home base in the first turn at bat, I said that it was, "I relax if I wanted to achieve 40%" [¹]. Williams recorded 6 hits in 8 at bats by two games and exceeded batting average 40% 0.6% and repainted the youngest record of the 40% batter of 24 years, 2 months old that Joe Jackson recorded batting average 40% at 23 years, 1 month old in 1911 and acquired the title of the leading hitter, the home run leader. Because there is not the person who recorded batting average 40% with a measure after this, the player who gave the youngest record becomes the last batting average 40% accomplisher. In addition, it tells to be said that, actually, it was not 40% to become 40% by rounding off as the reason that participated in a game that unpleasant. If an RBI earned another five runs batted in by 120 in a season in the same year, I equalled 125 runs batted in of Joe DiMaggio and was the winner of a triple crown.

I record the oneself first winner of a triple crown in 1942.

I record the second winner of a triple crown of the major most tie record in 1947.

The chance of the winner of a triple crown was in 1,949 years, but missed the winner of a triple crown without a batting average being reversed with 1 hair difference in the most end of the war, and being able to acquire the leading hitter.

A batting average is the league top in 1954, but misses it without 136 bases on balls influencing 400 at bats that are the rule of the leading hitter at the time, and reaching it with 386 at bats. Therefore, it is decided not at bats before a season in 1957 to adopt a turn at bat.

I played an active part as a main shaft of Red Sox until [²], the retirement of 1960 of the thing which there was 2 degrees service in a war by World War II and the Korean War. Batting average .344 in total, 521 home runs are baseball team records of Red Sox. The three times achieve on-base average 50% to be said to be "Untouchable", too; the first place major as for on-base average .482 in total in history. In addition, OPS1.116 in total is the second place next to Babe Ruth in history.

Retirement post

1966、The American baseball palaceEnter.

I acted as supervision of Texas Rangers of the third Washington セネタース and reincarnation for four years from 1969.

On July 5, 2002, I die. Uniform number 9 becomes the permanently retired uniform number of Red Sox.

Trial disturbance around the body of Williams

I left the will of cryopreserving one's body and, just before death, caused controversy.

The eldest son [³] expected cryopreservation and wished the eldest daughter [⁴] cremated it and sowed ashes in the sea. It was decided in favor of the eldest son at the first trial, but, as a result of retrial that the eldest daughter required, I cryopreserved the head of the corpse in deference to both opinions, and judgment to assume less than body cremation was started [⁵]. Only the head is really cryopreserved now at Al Coe life extension foundation. In addition, the eldest son died by acute leukemia several months later, and I was cryopreserved in the foundation by the hope of the person (he translates it partly from English version "en:Ted Williams".as for the details with English version by reference).

Person

I assumed fishing particularly fishing at sea a hobby through a life and when a season was over, I just performed it to Florida and have had fun of fishing at sea. In addition, I have gone to the cover of the magazine of the fishing.

I had a stubborn character. In disfavor with a formal thing, I continued refusing the wearing of the tie in the clothes. While the overwhelming ability is recognized without it having possibilities to be said that the relations with a fan and the media are friendly, I did not get popularity of the public like Joe DiMaggio. In fact, he accepted a signature in the days of the rookie willingly, but is said to be it when jeering of the outfield of the small fen way park worsened relations with a fan and the media. I left the ground without playing in the retirement game as usual, and showing one gesture to take off a hat let alone ceremony after the game, and to meet the audience. Naturally a muttering broke out from a fan and the media, but John Updike that it is a writer in New Yorker reporters later writes it down about this affair saying "the gods do not write the answers of the letter one by one". However, I waved a hat of Red Sox and said hello towards a seat after having given a speech when I was invited to the commemorative ceremony in the fen way park in May, 1991 50 years after the last batting average 40% arrival saying "I continued writing that Williams was obstinate, and newspaper reporters took the hat and did not say hello, but may never write such a thing".

About a race problem, it was an owner of the progressive thought. When Willie Mays who is a black was about to overtake Williams by a home run record in total, it is said that Williams encouraged it with "let's go, Willy" for Maize. I accused entering palace of excellent players who played an active part in a Negro league including Satchel Paige and Josh Gibson of the ceremony speech when I achieved entering baseball palace. It was known even that friendship was deep with Tony Gwynn and has invited Gwynne to fishing.

Baseball

In 1942 when I caught 2 degrees winner of a triple crown again in 1941 when I defeated batting average 40%, I was not chosen as the MVP in 1947 either. Because there was a trouble over an article, and the hometown reporter did not write the name of Williams by the tenth place with a reporter with local Boston all over the season about 1947 in particular though I caught the winner of a triple crown, I was defeated by the vote of the narrow margin (but I am chosen as the MVP in 1946 and 1949).

With an extraordinary kinetic vision, I was able to read the label of the record of 78 rounds. Furthermore, it is said that I make use of the eye for the air force era and shot down a lot of enemy planes. In addition, I am superior in a memory and memorize all a course, the type of pitch of the ball cast to oneself in the game of the day in addition to a kinetic vision, and it is said to a notebook that I recorded it. As for the writing "science of the batting of Williams," this daily record was written by the cause.

Williams had three regret in the baseball life. It being only once that the World Series performed on a first-class stage, and the first being defeated by Cardinals, and not having been able to have champions ring in the hand. The second being military service by World War II and the Korean War, and an athletic career having been stopped for nearly five years. And the third is not to have been endowed with "a swift horse". In 1957, I got the fifth leading hitter at the oldest 39 years old at batting average 38.8% in history, but, as for Williams, it is said that I was frustrated for life saying "oneself was able to record the second batting average 40% when there is speed a little more and earns another five hits by an infield fly".

"Is unbearable, I will be so great why" "does not get tired by the batting practice before the game even if is too interesting, and do it all day long" including "a blow do not become more delicious whenever practice it" sang the own praises all the time, but, on the other hand, Williams goes to bed at 10:00 p.m. while the neighborhood appears in the town for play at night, and do not breathe the cigarette either, and it is said that did thorough self-administration contrary to an arrogant manner.

For a heavy blow of Williams, supervision Lou Boudreau of Cleveland Indians has begun to arrange a strategy called the Boudreau shift which put an infielder to the right. This strategy became the model of the King shift made for Sadaharu Ou by professional baseball in Japan later.

If "because the first secret that it becomes the hard hitter to aim at the particularly first strike misses a strike, only it is disadvantageous to a batter, is counted, and then the pitcher throws it more decisively, and such a batter who does not know that it is easy puts a good grade in the batter team to be a lot which there may not be too many it, and hits the first strike to the present baseball by all means, and state, it is professional baseball again" after a retirement (himself was a batter with many bases on balls); [⁶].

When I fell into poor blow for the active play era, Katsuya Nomura meets a book of Williams and reads a description of the effect "that the pitcher has already decided a type of pitch when I throw it, and a delicate change appears for the movement of the body by a type of pitch" in that, and it is said that I came to study the habit of the pitcher triggered by this.

By an interview of 2002 before dying, I answered with "Ichiro" for an interview called "who is the batter who achieved batting average 40% next?".
