- As far as natural skills go, he has perfect talent. It's him and Josh Hamilton above everybody else. - David Apr 17, 10:55
- Best throw I ever saw live was a softball game with The King and His Court. Dead center field throw to home to get the out - Beaker Apr 17, 10:52 10

      - I was thinking neither him or Jerry Lawler look to be guys that can play ball or throw a rope from center. :-) -- nm - Krusty Apr 17, 11:02
    - He is likely the most famous softball player of all time. Travelled around the world. 4 players. pitcher, catcher, first baseman and a rover. - Beaker Apr 17, 10:58 4
      - Eddie Feigner is his name. I highly recommend reading his wiki entry -- nm - Beaker Apr 17, 11:00 3
        
        Very interesting. I'll check him out. -- nm - Krusty Apr 17, 11:01 2
        
        "In the game Feigner struck out Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Brooks Robinson, Roberto Clemente, Maury Wills, and Harmon Killebrew all in a row." -- (link) - Beaker Apr 17, 11:01 1
        
        Who hasn't done that... - Krusty Apr 17, 11:04
    - *crowns you* -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 17, 10:57 1
      - Where's my ceptor and crown? - Krusty Apr 17, 11:07
