Ted Williams signing contract


In an age where salaries in professional sports have gone through the roof, keep in mind that during this week back in 1950, Ted Williams became the highest paid player in baseball. The Red Sox signed him to a $150K contract. How amazing is that? League minimum salary in MLB last year was $400K.
