A young second baseman that Fox mentored, future Hall of Famer Joe Morgan, recalled Fox's influence: "I learned not only technique but a kind of artistry that only comes with real love of the game. "Feel the ball' Nellie would emphasize over and over again." The offered Nellie Fox bat is a Hillerich & Bradsby Louisville Slugger with Fox's facsimile signature etched into the barrel.
