Q: Baseball Trivia # 10 was about Eddie Waitkus who was shot by a crazed fan in Chicago. Seventeen years earlier this shortstop was also shot in a Chicago hotel by a jilted girlfriend. He recovered and ended up playing 17 years in the majors. He went to the World Series three times but came up short each time with the Chicago Cubs. He also had a brief managerial career with the Boston Red Sox.
Who was he?
A: Billy Jurges
