Ted Williams was a larger-than-life baseball icon and war hero whose complex personal saga and relationship with the city of Boston took many turns. He was the ultimate man’s man, a tireless fundraiser, expert fisherman and all-around outdoorsman extraordinaire. Today, 49 years after hitting a home run in his final at-bat, “Teddy Ballgame” is still regarded as the greatest pure hitter in baseball history. This film will trace his life story, which includes his spectacular Hall of Fame baseball career, five years of active military service and his personal relationships with friends, family and teammates
