7. Well, there was a player from the late 50s through 1970 named Tito
I'm not a huge Sox fan so I didn't know Terry had the nickname "Tito" .

6. Yep...Tito played for the Indians in the late 50s- early '60s
And yes, dear readers, I have his baseball card, in mint condition.

Terry also had a cup of coffee with the Tribe in the 80s
