Why did it take so long for the Redsox to retire Ted Williams number? Also I noticed Joe Cronin had his number retired first. I assume that was due to scheduling because both numbers were retired in 1984.

Now i'm curious why Wade Boggs number isn't retired. Whats even more strange is that Scott Podsednik wears #26 now. Is there a grudge between the Redsox and Boggs?"(Shoeless Joe Jackson's fall from grace is one of the real tragedies of baseball.

I know there were a lot of Red Sox fans that never forgave Boggs for signing with the Yankees.Originally posted by chicagowhitesox1173 View PostComment
