Monument to Jimmie Foxx, "Baseball's Forgotten Slugger"

There is a new monument to the "Pride of Sudlersville." Jimmie Foxx in his hometown of Sudlersville, MD. Foxx hit 534 home runs in his career and in one season hit 58, with two more not counted because they were hit in games that were rained out. If they had counted it would have equalled Babe Ruth's season record for homers. The monument is very well done, looking as if it costs more than the rest of Sudlersville put together.
