Another of those baseball lifers, Doerr continued his baseball tenure after his playing days were over by going into coaching, and by the late 1970’s found himself in Toronto as a hitting coach for the Blue Jays.
It’s incredible to think of this man’s life in Major League ball.
To put things in perspective, he was a teammate of Jimmie Foxx, played against Lou Gehrig, and came up to the Majors BEFORE Ted Williams!
Just incredible…
