Walter Johnson and The Silver Dollar - February 22

On February 22, 1936, Walter Johnson fires a silver dollar over the Rappahannock River, estimated to be a 386-foot toss. The spectacle—it took place in the backyard of Washington’s childhood home in Fredericksburg, Virginia. I will tell you the story through Bobby King II research and words. Afterward, I will bring you something that was hard to find, the voice of Walter Johnson doing a radio broadcast for the Senators. Event page - https://thisdayinbaseball.com/as-thousands-cheer-on-both-sides-of-the-river-48-year-old-senator-legend-walter-johnson-throws-a-silver-dollar-to-the-far-side-of-the-rappahannock-believed-to-be-a-386-foot-toss-the-washington-d-c/Walter Johnson's Page - https://thisdayinbaseball.com/tag/walter-johnson/Sponsor His Page - https://thisdayinbaseball.com/product/player-page-sponsorship/
