Jimmie Foxx (October 22, 1907 - July 21, 1967) was a Major League baseball player. He was starting first baseman for the Philadelphia Athletics from 1925 to 1935, of the Boston Red Sox from 1936 through part of the 1942 season (at which point he was traded to the Chicago Cubs), for the Cubs from 1942 to 1944, and for the Philadelphia Phillies in 1945. He retired with a career batting average of .325 and with 534 home runs, which at the time of his retirement made him second on the all-time home run list behind only Babe Ruth. He won the World Series twice, in 1929 and 1930, with the A's. He was American League MVP in 1932, 1933, and 1938, a nine-time All-Star, a Triple Crown winner in 1933, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1951.

- James Emory Foxx (October 22 1907 – July 21 1967) was an American first baseman in Major League Baseball who was one of the greatest right-handed power hitters to ever play the sport. Foxx was the second major league player to hit 500 career home runs, and at age 32 years, 11 months, and two days, is still the youngest ever to reach that mark. Although Foxx's name appears both as Jimmy Foxx and Jimmie Foxx in newspaper accounts, box scores, baseball cards, and other records, Foxx generally signed his name "Jimmie."
