"PC or not PC:" When not discovering news ways to bring you more junk mail
A week out from issue, the Postal Service has 1.5 million preorders of a four-stamp series of Hall of Fame sluggers Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Cleveland Indian Larry Doby, the first black player in the American League and Pittsburgh Pirate Willie Stargell. The Postal Service has held an online pennant race, known as Stamps Batted In, since April to stir interest in the stamps. So far, Joe DiMaggio is leading with 421,266 votes against 417,066 for Williams, 340,646 for Stargell 332,566 for Doby.

Your Say
Big-time PC here. Stargell and Doby were certainly good ballplayers, but I would not put either of them in the same category as Williams and DiMaggio.
