	Jimmie Foxx Obituary
		Jimmy Foxx was born in Sudlersville, Md., on Oct. 22, 1907.
		Foxx was one of the main reasons the A’s won the pennants in 1929, 1930 and 1931 and he contributed to World Series victories in 1929 and 1930.
		Jimmie Foxx hit for the cycle on April 14, 1933 (one of a record setting eight to do so in 1933) and drove in nine runs to break the American League record of eight — set by Roy Hartzell on July 12, 1911— for runs batted in during a game.

	BBTF's Hall of Merit Discussion :: Jimmie Foxx
		Nonetheless I have always thought Foxx was "cheated a bit" in terms of the limelight he actually never received due to the existence of Lou Gehrig.
		In 1944, the 36-year-old Foxx tried a comeback with Cubbies, but the team wouldn't play him regularily, he didn't hit at all (1 for 20, mostly as a pinch hitter) and he had problems with management.
		Foxx complained about the National League, stating that the ball was dead and he didn't know the unpires or pitchers.

		Besides being known for his huge generosity (he would pay for bar tabs and hotel bills without hesitation), he was known as a free spirit who loved his cigars and his booze, but it never tarnished his image as a great all around guy, even if he did imbibe in alcohol now and then.
		In July of 1967, after years of bad investments and ill health, Foxx died on the way to the hospital after he choked on a piece of meat in the backyard of his brother.
		By that time, he was a beaten and broken man, and those close to him felt that Jimmie had finally just given up, and did not have the will to live anymore.
