  1. What an awesome quote.

    Kinda puts the name “Double Duty” in a new light…

    • This is a great quote that I pulled from his autobiography entitled “Ted “Double Duty” Radcliffe: 36 Years of Pitching & Catching in Baseball’s Negro Leagues” and I can tell you that there are far more like this in the book. Radcliffe loved to tell stories about himself and the book captures that perfectly. I suggest you purchase the book below, you wont regret it!
