The photo of Foxx with Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Al Simmons... is the guy on the right Al Simmons or Mickey Cochrane? The caption here claims Simmons, but the actual photo file claims it's Cochrane. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.184.198.5 ( talk) 21:35, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
It says "this page may require cleanup" - whoever put that tag on left nothing on the talk page so we don't know what we're cleaning up! Mglovesfun 00:28, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Anybody have any idea of the lineup of the Irish squad? I'd love to know. Trekphiler 01:37, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Forgot which baseball book I read this story in---about how the A's came to sign Foxx.
An Athletics scout came to Foxx's small town to see somebody else.He saw Foxx plowing a field and asked him "Which way to the baseball park?"
Foxx held his plow straight out with one hand and pointed "Thatta way".
The scout quickly asked Foxx if he could play baseball.

The article keeps on referring to Foxx signing with the A's, the Athletics didn't become the A's until they were under Charlie Finley's management in Kansas City jstjdawg august 19

This said "In 1937, Foxx hit a ball into the third deck of the left-field stands at Yankee Stadium, a very rare feat because of the distance and the angle of the stands. Gomez was the pitcher who gave it up, and when asked how far it went, he said, "I don't know, but I do know it took somebody 45 minutes to go up there and get it back." I don't see this as possible. Both players played for the Athletics and Red Sox and neither ever played for the Yankees. The 1937 All Star Game was played in Washington, DC. The 1937 World Series was played between the Yankees and Giants, both teams never had Grove or Foxx on their roster. So how was Lefty Grove pitching to Jimmy Foxx in Yankee Stadium in 1937? — Preceding
