What Hall of Fame ballplayer shares a first name with the U.S. President who said, "I wish there was a book about how to be the President, because I surely would read it."?

If you want more of these kind of questions, just tell me yea or nay (while we're on a congressional topic).

Not yet. And goody took the question too literally. It's only one shared name!

Nope. Good guess though.

I'll give you a hint: It's a pitcher.

Yup. The quote was from Warren G. Harding.
