Muhammad Ali was three-time world heavyweight boxing champion.
Sports include many games structured in threes. In baseball, there are three strikes and you are out, three outs to an inning, and a trinity of trinities (3X3), in other words, 9 innings. Do you know about "Tinker to Evers to Chance?" Pictured to the right is none other than Joe Dimaggio.
Joe DiMaggio grins in the New York Yankees’ dressing room as he holds up three fingers to denote the three home runs he hit as the Yanks defeated the Washington Senators 8 to 1 in the first game of a doubleheader at Washington, September 10, 1950. Joe is the first player ever to belt three homers in one game into Griffith Stadium’s left field bleachers, 405 feet from home plate. He also got a double.
Everything or Nothing
Everything or nothing. “Cæsar aut nullus.” The Greeks and Romans
used to play with three dice. The highest throw was three sixes, and the lowest three aces. The aces were left blank, and three aces were called “three dice.” (See CÆSAR.)
