They share the same name, but little else.
In this edition of the THG Tale of the Tape, we compare Rex Sox legend Ted Williams with golden-voiced homeless man Ted Williams. What are their similarities? Differences? Who will prevail in a personal 10-round battle? Let's find out...
1. NICKNAME ...

Ted Williams: The Man with the Golden Voice
Edge: Ted Williams (Homeless dude)
2. SIGNIFICANCE of #9...
Ted Williams: Jersey number
Ted Williams: Number of kids
Edge: Ted Williams (Homeless dude)
3. FINAL AT-BAT...

THE VERDICT: This one was close. But the Hall of Famer takes it by a final count of 5-4-1. If the other Williams takes full advantage of his second chance - whether it's giving speeches to addicts or driving in a key playoff run - we may have to revisit this Tale.
