Baseball great Ted Williams frozen head used for game of base brawl at cryogenics lab.
New book Frozen by Larry Johnson reveals how the Splend Sprinter was beheaded, his head frozen and repeatedly abused.
Johnson, a former exec from the Alcor Extension Foundation in Scottsdale, Arizona, details how the Boston Red Sox slugger’s corpse became known as Alcorian A-1949.
The facility is where bodies are kept in suspended animation encased in liquid nitrogen for future generations to possibly revive.
After Williams died at age 83, cryo- technicians with no medical certification photographed and used crude equipment to decapitate baseballs last .400 hitter.
His head was then frozen before being used for batting practice by a tech trying to dislodge it from a tuna fish can, the author writes.
