Reading that the writers were thinking about the Indians' World Series win in 1948 and might have written it in to another season or two of Homefront got me to thinking...
Who really had Jeff Metcalf's position as rightfielder for the Cleveland Indians in 1946?
Did anybody on the real '46 or '47 team wear Jeff's number --- and was he #9 or #4, I don't remember.
I wonder if the real ballplayer is aware that somebody filled his shoes in such an awesome television show!
Who was the real coach for the Indians during this period?
